It will be interesting to see how the dark one turns out.

I noticed the moss under the eggs in the cup was very wet. Was this like this before they pipped? During the last phase of incubation, the eggs want to be drier. They actually release water vapor for several days prior to hatching. If humidity is too high then they cannot expel the water and will often die in the egg at full term. Some say they actually drown in the egg but I do not know if this is what actually happens. This is extremely common for many lizard species. If the baby was not kinked then this may be what weakened it.
