    Clutch 6 cut (Megaboobegg clutch)

    Killerbee sire x Enchi

    Out of six eggs two were definant slugs so we got rid of them. Two others were about 3/4 slug en atleast half the size of the regular eggs. We eventually decided to incubate them and see what happens. The slugpart turned bad and we had to remove fungus and mold off them on a daily basis. The bad part of the eggs remained intact and the small "healthy" part still showed signs of life every time we candled. Now 52 days in incubation we decided to cut the eggs.

    Has anyone here experienced anything like this? How did u deal with it and what did it result to? The 2 minisnakes clearly lack room for growing and development. I don't know how to solve this. Do I make a big hole and give them more space so they can grow or should i just leave it like this and see what happens?

    Either way I give them a small chance of making it and realize the chances of being deformed are real.

    That's crazy! All that matters is there is life in the egg!

    The 2 smaller baby's both died. They never had a chance, due to a lack of space to grow they both had deformities and died eventually.

    It would have probably been a bumblebee and a pastel enchi.

    How did they come out of the eggs, on the first day of cutting?
    Why isn't any of their yolk absorbed?

    They didnt come out. We took them out of their eggs after we realised they were both dead.
