First clutch!

Its day 61 and they havent come out of the egg yet but my question was that i only bred a pastel to a normal and i got this... should it look that light or might there be something else going on there?

That baby doesn't look fully developed to me...

thats... a scary thought. not what i was hoping for. its a lot bigger than it looks in the pic i will say though and it is moving and such

I may just be looking at it wrong but that head looks oddly shaped

I agree the coloring is a little... Off. Like to didn't color in all the way. The eyes look a little funky too. Wait till they come all out and then share pictures.

the head was angled a little towards the camera so it is gonna look off me looking directly at it it looks normal to me. but the coloring is what threw me as well thats why i posted it. the other ones are either brownish normals or this color as well.

Interesting. I hope everything is fine with all of them. Looking forward to pictures and the responses.

I agree, it looks odd to me. The pattern is off too. Did you have humidity/wet/dry/temp issues?

Umm... what temperature did you incubate the eggs at? They are clearly NOT fully developed which leads me to believe something is seriously wrong with how the eggs were incubated. What was the humidity at, and temperature??? FYI eggs that are fully viable and healthy (babies) should NOT look like this... especially at day 61.

Please answer the questions we are asking.

as close as i could get to 89. it was in a hovabator that i had borrowed from a friend so it fluctuated more than i had liked. it had been 86 and 87 at some times. it was the only one out of the clutch that had no color and it was definitely the smallest in the clutch

I couldn't see the pic I no at lower temps can take alot more time to incubate so did u cut or he come out on own?

I cant see the pic either.

update:

well im certain that my inexperience is probably what cost me those hatchlings and im very upset over it. next year im not gonna cut until one pips and even then im only gonna be making a small cut in the egg to help em out.

i did have 3 survive and they are all doing well. they are all very active and the only one that didnt eat the yolk i offered a pinky to and it has taken it so im very pleased about that as well. i am loving the pattern on these guys from my normal x pastel pairing.

the pic was taken before the tub was cleaned and the hatchlings were washed off so please try not to judge the mess ;)

At least some made it, though I wouldn't call it your fault. They didn't develop for a while, not because you cut.
