Cut my first clutch ever! do they seem underdeveloped?

Those are huge windows. I'm not sure why you would cut at all, let alone windows that massive, when you're about to go away. You won't be there to monitor for mold, dehydration, or any of the other issues you open them up to when you cut.



Congrats on the babies and hopefully they all turn out OK

I agree that was definitely a bad idea. Cutting is something you need to monitor closely and the fact that you're going away can turn out pretty bad if it molds or drys out and youre not there. You need to have some way of monitoring it or you could very possibly lose some of those babies.
