Update on first clutch!!!

[RichsBallPythons]

Add water all over the sides just to the point of puddling on the top. And you shouldnt have to add water again. Also when you add the water, you dont want the press n seal as with substratless method it can cause condensation.

You havent had condensation yet cause it wasnt wet, which is why eggs are drying. Just add enough water and put on lid. All i do and eggs stay full till day 50 for me.

As you can See its SOAKED and on day 31 in incubator its still soaked

What did they look like when you put them in the tub? I had a clutch that I wasn't expecting last year that stayed in the rack with mom for a few days. The eggs looked about like yours the day I put them in the incubator and still all hatched. I use the substrateless method with water so I am at 100% humidity and the eggs never did reinflate. You should be fine. Put them back in the incubator and leave them alone.

I found these eggs within ours of being laid, but they somewhat dimpled in the first week and never reinflated. Now they are just beginning to further dimple. My tub has a ton of condensation in it, so I have no idea why they are doing this already.

How exciting for you! The candling just gets more and more fun from here on out

Get that mixture sloppy wet and enjoy the next month

They will fine. Although I don't normally like cutting eggs I would cut them around day 55. With mine I was just worried that the egg might be a little harder for the snake to cut through because they felt a little tougher.

I had eggs start dimpling on day 40 last year, didn't get my first pip until day 60. I would add more water just to be sure, but I suppose its possible the dimpling is just dimpling and not dehydration.

I am on day 39 and I don't have any dimpling! Just to give you an idea! Adding more water wouldn't hurt anything!

[DemmBalls]

My substrate is SOAKED right now and the tub is filling with condensation. I understand that eggs will dimple when dehydrated, but I don't know how that would be possible at this point? I'll keep an eye on them and just hope they go full term. Everything seems spot on.

Here is the tub as of tonight.

You need to ditch the press n seal and just use the lid. When using substraeless and press n seal you end up with condensation.

By using the lid only you allow small air flow in the tubs which stops the moisture build up.
