    I know it comes with the territory...

    As soon as I cut Clutch #8, I noticed the spider tail in the egg looked a little weird? Few days go by and decide to get a closer look, I made a bigger cut in the egg. The head was twisted 360 degrees, like a corkscrew... It was one of the hardest things for me thus far.. I know it comes with the territory, still difficult none the less. It was a double sire clutch, spider het ghost, firefly x Genetic Stripe. The rest of the clutch is fine and waiting for their first shed.

    I am sorry to hear about your misfortune. Having things go wrong is the side of breeding no one likes to think about or talk about.

    That is one reason why I think it is so important that we breeders post our troubles here, just as a reminder to people getting started that it's not all sunshine and roses.

    Bummer. Unfortunately that stuff happens when you breed animals.

    I had a badly deformed had hatched this year as well and it was hard. He never made it out of the egg and for obvious reasons but it was still hard. I never want any of them to suffer or be in pain and it bothers me when I see one that dies of any abnormality.
    Pictures graphic but i know what you went through.
