All of the eggs were good, but still got a maggot infestation. Several of the beardies hatched out with open umbilical areas...when I applied betadine to them maggots came rolling out. It was gross, but several of the babies actually survived.

I have no idea where they came from or how they got into the babies, but I still try to keep rotten funk away from my eggs now.

Just one data point among thousands....
