    I'm going to be a bit harsh here.

    You really need to be doing a lot more research into things then. If you don't even understand how the genetics work for something as simple as BEL x Normal, have you done any research into the incubation or care for the hatchlings? Or even how to care for mom in case of an emergency like eggbinding? Could you euthanize a hatchling if you needed to? Get vet treatment for any of them?

    Do you know how to get them started on food? What signs to watch out for in health? Do you know where they're going to go when they're older?

    There is a lot that you need to consider.
    I just had my 3rd clutch ever hatch last week... I already lost one hatchling. Another one has an eye deformity. And a third is probably going to need to be euthanized.
    Things can happen that are entirely out of your control and you need to be prepared ahead of time.
