That's great! Who's the proud poppa? One of my normals gave me six eggs this morning,60 days on the dot. She was bred by my Spider. Jon

Tosha- Our due date was about the same. Mine was due to lay on 13MAR. She laid yesterday! 4 beautiful white, dimply and somewhat heavy eggs. This was her first clutch ever and mine too!!
Does the weight of the eggs indicate the approximate weight when they hatch? The 4 eggs together were 355 g. I tried to candle them, but was too excited with hands shaking to get a good look. They are stuck together side be side! One has great veins easy to see. I will try the others later with some help.
COngratulations!!!!!

LOL - congrats back at you!!! I was wondering how many of us that posted on my previous "still waiting" thread had gotten eggs!!! Must have just needed those warm days.

Best of luck!

Looking good! Will mom incubate? Maybe we (read, you) can document the environment during incubation.

Thanks Jay - Yes my intention is to let her do the incubation - I am a little concerned because she looks like she lost quite a bit of weight after laying - she was just over 1600 when bred - she looks to be about 1000 now - also she doesn't look like she can honeycomb the eggs - but I don't know how important that is - I'll have to keep an eye on them and have the incubator set up just in case.

This year I decided to follow the advice of Rick Denmon and Bob Clark and not turn my tub into an incubator! The humidty is hovering around 80% right now - mostly due to the cypress still being wet from when I cooked it and the temperature is in the upper 80s. And my fingers are crossed and I've been praying hard to the appropriate ball gods.

We'll see what happens!
