I know my info won't help too much.. but figured I would put in my results as well. Last year was our first year breeding, as well as our leos. We had 5 clutches for a total of 10 eggs from our single pair. All but the last 2 were fertile. The first clutch got right up to a week or so before hatching and died in the egg, they were fully formed. We lost all others at a day or two to a few weeks into development. But that loss was due to a temp spike and not turning on our air conditioning in time, the hovabator was in a closet that got too hot. Temp inside incubator got to above 100F. Within a few days all eggs had ceased growing. I realize now that I should have dropped the temp slower, and that the drastic rise and fall (I moved the incubator to a cooler location to try to lower the temp) was the reason for their death. So I am 0-10 last year. Hoping for a better year this year.
My male Piccolo as a youngin, he is dbl het for patternless and rainwater albino as is his mate.
