Re: Video of my first clutch ever! Laid on mothers day
That's a really cool vid. How much did she weigh before and after? I would like to have seen you take her off the eggs, but I could imagine you were a bit nervous. I can't help but feel bad for the mother in some way. Oh well, we know it's best.

she weighed about 2200 grams in december (last time i weighed her) and after laying she weighed 1351 i feel so bad for her, she looks so skinny right now.
I was going to try to record me taking her off the eggs but i was so concearned about rotating the eggs that i chose to focus on getting her off of them without moving them too much and without getting bit she was soooo angry its not even funny, i went with the towel over her head trick to reduse the ammount of stress on her...and on me LOL it worked great, i was able to put her in a different container without any problems. In fact she calmed down enough that i was even able to give her a bath a few minutes later and then weigh her without her bitting me. Eggs are in the incubator (hovabator with a Helix thermostat) and now...we wait
