How is that for a title?!
Today on day 60 I am a VERY happy man. These eggs were from a first time breeder pastel mom. The dad was either a spider, cinny, or pastel.
She laid 4 eggs. one was a total slug. 2 horrible boobs, and one good egg. Needless to say I was pretty dissapointed. The slug was just mucus inside. I saw little to no veins in the boobs, but I figured I would incubate till they rotted. Well today on day 60 I cut. The rotten part is moldy and stinky, and hard as a rock. I though for sure they were dead because they "good" part of the egg was very squishy and just didn't feel normal. Well, here is the results:
and
and the good egg...
Yay!!! Looks like the two boobs are going to make it. One looks to be a normal, the other is VERY light so it is likely either a super pastel, pewter, or pastel. The good egg looks to either be a super pastel or a pewter.
They all appear to be healthy. Only real concern at this point is the boobs look to be a little premature looking... I am afraid the mold and rotting of the boob part of the egg will become an issue if they want to stay in the egg much longer. Any advice?
Looks like this will be a happy ending... will certainly post pics once they are out!
