I talked to people who have had success breeding and hatching, and got some good advice. Putting the pair together is only a small part of it. Hatching sounds easy, but until you get your method down, it can be frustrating. This is the adult Sulfur (at the time, I thought she might be a Burgundy Hypo or Hypo) on 11 eggs, all molded. Look at those eggs, they were perfect, 11 good eggs and one slug. I put too much water in the substrate, and lost all the eggs. I also lost a nice 8 egg clutch of my Het Green Ghost pair. I probably lost 5 good clutches completly, due to mold. I now start the eggs off a BIT on the dry side, and slowly add water. I had good success with this method in 06, and will do it again this year. You can see two of my 06 clutches, the 06 Pastel x Sulfur clutch and the Pastel x normal clutch.
