Clutch was laid 5/4. All stuck together, but I marked the tops anyway b4 I put them on a grid (substrate-less method) in a shoebox sized container with lid & no air holes.

Candled & looked great all the way till about last week when I thought movement seemed a bit less when candled.

I was determined not to cut. Today I checked the eggs & there was tiny bit of neon green on the eggs. I saw no movement, freaked out, & cut all of them only to find 10 perfectly formed dead babies. A few had even absorbed 85-90% of the yolk.

Using Nature's Spirit incubator with Spider Robotics t-stat. Eggs shoot at 88-89 & I have a tub of h20 in there so humidity is close to 100%.

Needless to say I am quite frustrated & want to prevent this from happening again.

It was a normal female bred to a couple visuals, spider, pastel...nothing fancy.

Thoughts, flames, lectures, ideas...all welcome. I am clueless.

Everything else in the bator appears to be chuggin along fine. Of course I'm paranoid from here out. DOH!
