First time breeding. Female laid 8 healthy looking eggs 20 days ago. I did candle them and they all showed veins.
They have looked perfect up until I checked today. The 4 covered in mold are not showing any veins (the loose one even has some goo on the bottom). The other four have strong veins.

I have been incubating in a make shift polybox incubator.
At 89 degrees and 99% RH. The shoebox the eggs are in is loosely attached. So not airtight. I have a fan and an airstone circulating + bringing in fresh air. To the best of my knowledge the temperatures have not fluctuated much nor the humidity.
The only problem I had was a small amount of condensation on the lid. I raised one edge so I don't think the eggs where dropped on.
Any ideas of what could of gone wrong? Does it sometimes just happen or is it always down to the incubator/me?
Is there anything I could do to increase the chances of the others surviving? They are all stuck together bar the one. Should I try separate?
