I have a colony of 7 female leos who have been bred with 2 different males....they are all different ages, ranging from 2-7 years. They are kept on tile, have plenty of hides, and have a 12-12 day/night cycle. I keep a bowl of calcium power in the tank with them, and i feed them gut loaded roaches, crickets, and all different worms.



They have all started to lay eggs....i have 2 seperate lay boxes with moist vermiculite in the tank. But all the eggs are squishy, not one has been firm. 4 of the 7 have laid viable eggs in the past, but now none of them are good. I have tried to incubate them in a hovabator at 82 degrees, but they all shrivel.



We had to be fumegated for bugs a few times, but i removed all the animals from the house for the day each time this happened. I am really worried it has made them infertile. Is this possible? If so, would it be forever? This is the only thing i can think of that would be wrong...and i am worried about the adults...any other ideas or suggestions are appreciated!
