My female rhino iguana laid 11 eggs last Wednesday am. We transferred them to the Hovabater to incubate with Hatchrite substrate. One week later, many of the eggs are sunken in and discolored. I've attached pictures - the camera makes the eggs look much more yellow than they are, but I think you get the point.

Now this our first time attempting to incubate, so I was hoping someone out there might have advice. I'm a little skeptical of the Hatchrite substrate - it says no need to add water - but I don't know if my eggs are getting enough moisture. Could this be leading to bad eggs?

Hoping to hear from someone who has seen good/bad eggs in the past.
