    Did you breed them to keep them or sell them!??! Your second question is just as vague as the first

    Re: going away on vacation !

    It's unusual for eggs to hatch before day 55, but it does happen. However, it's unlikely they'll actually be out of the egg by day 55. If they are, they'll be fine until you get back. No worries.

    There is chance that they will come out, but they will be fine in the incubater for a couple of days til you get back.

    That sounds a lil dangerous to just leave open the top but then again we don't know what your setup looks like. What exactly IS your setup?

    It might be possible to move them to a larger tub if you have room to heat it up to proper temps before transferring but you'd have to be SUPER careful (but I'm sure you know that! ). Hopefully someone more experienced can answer a bit better.
