Congrats! Small clutches do occasionally happen... Mine are also usually in the high teens, highs in the mid 30's, lows around 8 eggs. Sometimes, if she is interrupted during the laying process she might stop laying and retain the remaining eggs, but if she did the whole process and buried the eggs without disturbances, she's probably just done. If eggs are retained, she may try to do the process again in a few days. Just keep an eye on her with extra hydration the next week or so. You can probably plan on the small egg going bad within 3 weeks, although it might pull through. Every few clutches will have a small egg or two, and they almost always go bad eventually. Err on the dry side for the incubation medium! ----- Tyler Stewart
