Sorry to see that. stuff happens, here is a pic of my first clutch last year.
Even the two "good" eggs went bad after a week so be on the lookout for that. Bad eggs come from a lack of sperm not too much food. She was probably eating because she had extra room in her belly due to the small infertile eggs. Eating doesn't cause infertile eggs.

>>Just before ovulation she was a mad eating cow. I open the tub there she was, she wanted more food. And now I have learned a very important lesson. Do not feed your girls to much. I know fat girls lay slugs, but this is ridiculous. 7 slugs and 1 good eggs. I did not expect to find this when I got home. I was gone the whole weekend, but her lay date should have been this saturday at 28 days from shed. I came home tonight (sunday). The good egg I put in my incubator, but it was a little dimpled from low humidity in the tub. I mix the vermiculite and perilte, 50 50. I measured the medium, 50% medium 50% water, but the humidity level was 44%. Anyone have any suggestions. This really sucks for my first clutch. I know I am knew to this, but I expected better results then this. I could shoot my self in the foot right now, anyone want to do it for me?
