I am curious what others who have bred gray-banded kings have had for incubation times. Mine are at 71 days, at a temp of 80-82. They all still look good, with the exception of two that have had fungus almost from the very beginning. Those two have caved in quite a bit in the last week or so. One other has dimpled a little bit.

What is interesting is that one of the fungused eggs is attached to 3 others, and the fungus has not spread.

Do any of you ever cut the eggs if they don't pip after a certain time? I have heard of neonates being unable to cut their way out.

Sorry for being a worrier, and thanks in advance for your input!

Here's the mom a couple of years ago.
