>>Generally, if I catch a female laying eggs, I will pull the eggs out as she lays them. With my very first FL king clutch, I caught the female starting to chew on one of her eggs.

>>I've never actually lost any eggs like this, but a lot of other breeders I know have lost entire clutches of eggs because the female decided to eat them.



I've had it happen with Floridana and Californiae.......

Never seen a mexicana, Splendida or Holbrooki do it though.....
