I have been meaning to stop by lately, but I was waiting until I could get a pic to post with this update. I haven't had the chance yet.

Unfortunately there is some bad news. So far out of the 13 eggs, there is only one left that is good. For reasons I cannot figure out, almost all of the eggs have gone bad. I wish I could say it was the female, but she has laid great eggs for the past 6 years. I wish I could say it was the males, but almost every male that was introduced with her has had perfectly fine clutches all season. I also wish I could blame it on the incubator, but 95 clutches have been in and hatched with results nowhere near these. So, for some strange reason, this clutch seems to be a fluke.

However, the ray of bright light, is that there is still one egg that could be the winner for some lucky person. So, please continue to play, and I look forward to posting a great looking animal from that sole egg. Also, I have some fun news for the planning of next year's contest. So, stay tuned for that, and let's pray for the sole survivor.

I'm sorry to hear about the clutch. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the egg that is left.

Sorry to hear about the clutch, that is a real bummer. But on the bright side, everyone gets just one guess so we are all still in the race!

Sorry to hear most of them died. I have a clutch that did the same thing. Started as 10, and now down to one... Due on Christmas, so I'm hopeful. It candles well at least...

My guess is a male fire calico, 68g.
Hang in there little guy!
