    Eggs!!!!!
    I woke up this morning and looked in one of my girl's tubs, and she has eggs, the same girl that was doing all that folding.
    She is still going so I don't want to bother her, but I can see one good big egg. (if I moved the tub to take pics now, would she stop, or keep laying?)
    I'll post picks when she is done.

    MY FIRST CLUTCH IS HERE!!!!! the day before my husband and I's anniversery:D

    Re: Eggs!!!!!
    I was watching her through the side of her tub, so far I can only see 2 eggs but they look huge! she still looks "full" so I am trying to leave her alone:D

    there is a amazing, and big BP in my livingroom laying eggs, and I can't watch. oh wait I can, I'll just peek in every few min. I am trying to let her be so I don't bother her, so I'll just have to stay on here and take up some time.

    congratulations~ on the eggs and the anniversary!

    If you took a couple pics of her it *probably* wouldn't disturb her enough for it to be a problem.......but why risk it? Just wait till this evening and you can take all the pics you want when she's done doing the hard work!

    So far there are 4, and she still has more. All of the 4 so far look good, but it is hard to tell through the side of the tub.:D:banana::banana::banana::banana:

    I don't know, when I was having my kid, I didn't think a camera click would change anything. I'll be screaming bloody murder for that irrespectful fool, but there's no stopping that baby. He's outta there, no matter what! :D

    CONGRATULATIONS! :bow::bow:

    Re: Eggs!!!!!
    Very nice, Jamie. You can tell she's a proud mama. Are you going to put them in an incubator, or let her do the job?

    Re: Eggs!!!!!
    I put them in the incubator.
    She had a nice bath, and now has a nice clean tub with new bedding.

    2 weeks ago she was at 1,909g, and now she is at 1,167g. Those eggs were a total of 742g

    I was thinking about letting her do it, but after seeing how skinny she was after they were all out I went with the incubator.

    HUGE Congrats, but make sure that moss is barely damp, and as soon as you can, get those eggs on a better medium! :)

    thanks
    All they carry around here is sand, compost, and menure. I was lucky to find the moss.
    the best thing I did find was a sand perilite mix, that was all anyone had. One day I'll move to a place that has this odd stuff, or I'll get a good job so I can get a creditcard and but offline.

    You don't have a Walmart, Lowes or Home Depot anywhere near you? Even straight perilite would be better than moss or a sand/perilite mix.

    Some Petsmarts were carrying Hatchrite last season.

    We have a walmart, but they don't carry anything.we don't have any of the other stores within 50 mi.
    I will keep looking, but I did check with all the stores in town.

    Re: Eggs!!!!!
    Big congrats on your first eggs. As long as that moss is barely moist I wouldn't worry. Although moss has a tendancy to mold after a while, I used to use moss like that for corn snake eggs and I never had a problem. I'm all about improvising when it comes to egg media, and moss works great as long as it's not too wet.
