davidgeckos May 20, 2003 06:24 PM

Hey guys i have an egg in the incubator, that is about to hacth (according to date) and i noticed this morning a couple of drops of liquid on the egg. I wiped them, but soon more appeared. I know that it is not humnidity bc those are the only eggs in the whole incubator that has those drops, and also because it is the first time seeing those drops. DO YOU GUYS THINK THAT THE GECKO IS ABOUT THE HATCH BECAUSE OF THAT, IS THAT A SIGN???

David.

A "sweating" egg is a sign the egg is about to hatch. Though eggs can also go wet when the gecko inside dies, in your case, with the timing, it sounds like a good sign!
