    Just got eggs

    I am excited and a little disappointed. I got four eggs, but two are slugs. They are much smaller and more yellow than the other two. Is there any reason to incubate them? Also I only saw a few red veins on the remaining two. Do they have few at first and then get more? My wife swears she saw veins in the slugs.

    a picture of said slugs would help us out a ton in helping you. if they are indeed slugs an not say boob eggs then i would jusst toss them. you dont want them going bad an causing the remaining eggs to go bad. but like i said snap a picture so we can help u out

    Those are by no means the worst I've ever seen. I've see stuff hatch out of less... Do they have any veins? When in doubt.. Incubate it out.

    So should I just leave them in? Just remove them if they start to spoil?

    If there are no veins in the "slugs" then no I would not. But the other two look great.
