I normally count on 50% of my females that are of age and size will give me eggs. I have very few slugs, less than 2% of total eggs laid. I personally believe that once you have an egg in the incubator that if it goes bad after 3 weeks its your fault. You were off on humidity or temps. This does not mean that you will not ever get an egg to full term and then have a kinked baby or one that just crawls out and then dies. This just happens. I normally have 1 or 2 of these each year.Originally Posted by hgrub
I had one male that was actually a hermaphrodite that at 4 years old never actually breed. He was sold this year strictly as a pet to someone. Other than that 99% of 18 month old males will breed at least a few females. Some are lazy and some will go and go until they keel over if you let them. You have to be very in-tune with your animals during breeding season.
