I am debating on candling them. It is pretty bad, but they were at a pretty low humidity in the tank at my friend's store.
I am really thinking of keeping one if they do hatch; I was never crazy about the parents, that my friend owns; both are skittish as heck, but I figured if I have one from birth, I can accustom it to handling..
This got me pretty mad; but after laying the eggs, my friend says that the female has escaped. She really could have had a better-locking lid on the tank; only the male was left in the tank, ignoring the eggs of course. I feel abd because the mother is probably dead or a least will be, since she probably got out of the store and into the woods or creek area, or worse, the road, as it is in a rural area.
They did seem pretty dried out though; but they were in moist cypress over there, so they weren't done-dry. Maybe the dimplings came from the warmer substrate (UTH) with cooler ambient temps?
I just hope I am doing all I can now for them.
