I've been out of breeding for years now and am getting back into it and I feel like there's something I'm forgetting. I had 2 Mack Snow eggs that should have hatched last week. Incubating on moist bed-a-beast style media at 80-82 degrees. Instead of hatching, they began to shrivel. Looked deflated. Out of curiosity, I opened one after it being shriveled for 4 days to find a fully formed gecko, but it didn't wake up. The other egg is still intact, but again, shriveled. I really want these to hatch, since their father is quite old and I'd like to keep that blood line. Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Frank
