take a deep breath!

set up an incubator as soon as you can. It is NOT an emergency situation though... That mom is perfectly capable of taking care of the eggs herself. The reason many of us use incubators in the first place is to provide optimum temps and humidity, and to get mom back up to weight. She will not eat until the eggs are either out of her tub, or hatched.


Don't take those eggs from her until you have a properly functioning incubator that has been tested for a day or two.
