My first clutch ever!!!
So exactly 27 days after her ovy shed I have my first ever clutch of bp eggs!
Pretty great clutch, 10 good eggs and 2 slugs.
The pairing was a normal x lesser. So hopefully I'll get some good healthy little babies out of this one!
I washed out the females enclosure but holy crap she has been moving around non stop since I took her eggs, its been like 12 hours and she hasnt stopped...any suggestions for me on this?
The other female I bred with the lesser is taking her sweet time, she hasnt even had her ovy shed yet...but shes HUGE so im hopeful.
I also had a question, my incubator seems to fluctuate more than I like. Anywhere between 85 to 89 degrees. I'm assuming in nature temps fluctuate more than that even so I'm thinking its probably ok? But any input would be helpful. The humidty is at 95%.

Try feeding your girl. That might help settle her down.
And Congrats on the nice sized clutch!!

I've had girls eat within hours of laying, and I've had girls wait a couple days. It wouldn't hurt to try

Wow, nice big clutch! 
Feeding will definitely settle her down, and a little fluctuation isn't bad. My first clutch was incubated in a poorly-made mini fridge deal, and fluctuated by 3-5 degrees throughout... babies all hatched just fine, so I guess that didn't matter! What are you using for an incubator, and does it have a fan?

Awesome first clutch! Congrats!
I'm not sure how big your incubator is, but a lot of people add water bottles/jugs to their incubators to help stabilize temps.
