Dimpling in Woma eggs

rudedogsurfrat Jun 01, 2006 07:18 AM

I've been keeping my humidity at 80-90% and the temperature at97 degrees. A couple eggs are starting to "dimple" in. This is not the pre-hatch dimple since they have only been incubating for 18 days.
can anyone help me on this?

I aint the woma expert on any degree so do a bit of research and double checking before changing anything. Your temp's seem high to me, and your humidity, say, low side of normal. Consider raising humidity in response to the dimpling.

Remember that woma's are found in arid regions, but utilize cooler (not out in the sun), but stable and humid areas for egg laying.

Good luck
