You said..."Do you mean when they split open they will be dead?"...if its happening because the humidity is too high. Have the eggs grown a lot since they were laid?



You said..."is it possible to do some damage control"...I know of one case where the person moved the eggs carefully to another container with vermiculite that was less moist where it seemed to help. However its a crap shoot...it might work....or it might not. I would hate to be responsible for you losing them if it didn't work.



You said..."I didnt have any ventilation holes in the containers and I did notice alot of condensation on the lids when there was temperature changes in the morning when the room started to warm up. I would shake off the extra drippy water but didnt actually wipe them off"...there has always been condensation on the lids and sides of my containers. I do always punch two tiny holes in the top of the shoebox sized containers though.



Where are you incubating them?

Good luck!
