nelsoni females, when really really full of eggs (or any species), will eat right before laying even , when they clutch is huge for her....mine laid 10 huge eggs...last 2 years was 6 each.....she ate a small mouse I accidentally fed her like 4 days before laying.....I thought she would drop, then, realized she had weeks to go...huge...
MOLD ....DOES kill eggs and babies....Lake Perry red milk...6 eggs...2 duds, 1 had bad spot...it died right away and got moldy...the three remaining eggs lived, but the 2 touching the moldy egg didn't grow like the third one,,,the first baby out was small and had a FULL belly ....died in a day and half...the other egg touching moldy egg died IN egg, and was small...real small....one baby is cool....the 2 babies of touching mold eggs...were PIN banded looking also...thin bands on red....
pyro eggs can crack....lik chicken eggs?...not sure if it is just me...but ...after the mold issue...I tried to get a moldy agg from a clutch of pyro ,,,and a good egg attatched cracked...loudly too....just like a bird egg...I quit right away...too late...?...we'll see....are pyro eggs different???...usually eggs will move and give a little...I have pulled alot of eggs apart and never had one crack like it was dry...???
good luck all....... ----- ........JY
