please help. eggs stuck together
Checked on the eggs and saw they are stuck together. Is there anyway I can get them apart without hurting the eggs or just leave them be. This is my first clutch and I'm going the maternal route.

Leave them be, they are supposed to stick together.

Agreed. You want higher humidity for the eggs. And like said earlier do not separate eggs unless infertile ones start rotting or eggs start molding

Re: please help. eggs stuck together
You don't want to get the eggs wet. so moist the coco but not to close to the eggs..

Re: please help. eggs stuck together
^^ Like the people above said. Mist the coconut fiber and make it nice and damp but dont dampen the fiber to close to the eggs. You want to keep the humidity really high in the cage. I would not mist too close to the eggs because you don't want to get them wet! I can't tell by the picture but if your using a tank with a screen top i would suggest to cover the majority of the top with a towel or something. This will help the humidity stay much higher.

Right now temp and humidity in tank is 90. I'm afraid to dampen it more cause humidity might spike out of control and cause the female to get a resptory infection. Here's a pix of temp and humidity. Also it seems like she's smashing the eggs. I could be wrong tho. Lol btw I have her in a four foot boa master.

Re: please help. eggs stuck together
Yeah you know what i didn't even think about that before posting. Im not entirely sure what to do because u want the eggs to have a lot of humidity but u dont want to get them wet. But ur right that super high humidity in cage over 2 months is def not good. I use an incubator so hopefully someone with some maternal incubation experience can help you. Im sure you can find a thread on it somewhere on the forums

I've also seen mixed answers in post about what humidity should be for the eggs. I've heard 60 to 70 in the sticky above but also heard 80 to 100. I want to get it right so they can thrive. But also keep the female to free and healthy. Also what about feedings? Sorry for all the questions but I want to get this right the first time around. Lol any help or links would be really helpful. Thanks guys
