I expected duds b/c thats what I've read, that there is a higher potential for duds in the first clutch since it is, they're first clutch
Don't believe every thing you hear I've gotten 3 great clutches this year from first time moms and last year my smallest clutch was 8 eggs and that was a first time mom..so was the 11 egger..

Dud's are due to temp problems (to hot or to cold), health problems with the females, or the male didn't get things done.
