Does anyone have some advice for removing a large angry blood from her eggs without breaking them ?
Thanks

Hey,
You can use a large towel being careful not to drop them when lifting her. It could take two people with this job, but it is doable. I've never had a problem with lifting a female just after laying egg's but it could happen. Just be sure that you have a holding container at the ready to place her in and also, have your incubation medium and incubator all set up.
