Help! Green on my BP eggs!

[seang89]

I was giving the eggs a checkup and noticed a few of them have green stuff on them, it appears like mould, but it doesnt wipe off. It seems as If its coming from inside the eggs. I have had them in a incubator at 88-90F

Did you candle the eggs???

6 out of 7 have been candled. They all showed viens. The only things I can think of is that I didnt find the eggs in the females enclosure about a week after she had laid (im assuming a week since I was gone for the week). She had laid them on the hot side of her tank. Her hotspot is anywhere from 92-95.

Are they dead?

I saw that in your other post, recognized the eggs. ... if it has veins there may be hope but beyond that I'm not experienced! I just know veins are good and yellow eggs are bad!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!! Rooting for these eggs.

To me it appears that your medium is too wet, lift one of the eggs and check the bottom to see if it's too wet, if so add more dry medium to the mix. Use a Q-tip to gently wipe off mold.

How old are the eggs?

[seang89]

They were discovered by me on the 9th of july. I believe they were laid after the 2nd of july while I was out on business. So they are only around 10 days old Im guesstimating .

I agree. The substrate looks too wet. The eggs should be just as white and dry on the bottom as they are on top. We use vermiculite / perlite and don't usually see condensation on the inside of the egg box until the eggs start dimpling right before they pip. It looks like the inside of the egg box is covered with condensation and the medium looks wet.

I figured that werent that old... They have a good bit of time to go with that on them(assuming its a type of mold)... not sure what to tell you. like the other person said try slightly drier because the outside looks soaked, but that runs a huge risk. are all of the eggs like that or just a few of them? try and separate those that have it and those that dont if there are any.

I have separated the 4 that have it from the 3 that dont. It doesnt wipe off at all. It appears that the color is coming from the inside
