I'm not sure what caused it. Shortly after the eggs died, we also lost a half dwarf het albino granite cluch the same way. We hatched a half dwarf clutch that was sitting on the shelf right next to the ones that died and they had no problems.



We were talking to someone about guinea pigs from RP. He mentioned that he quit using them after he lost several clutches within a week of hatching. All our burms have been eating guinea pigs for several years. We immediately quit using guinea pigs.



We got a clutch from another one of our half dwarf het albino granite girls in July. All the eggs hatched and the babies are doing fine. She had eaten only guinea pigs before she ovulated, so I have no clue what caused the eggs to die.
