Congrats on the eggs..and good luck with all the babies when they come out. I have my fingers crossed on some retics here for eggs, one in particular. Only time will tell.

Thank's and let's hope we get all healthy babies.

Are you going to remove the eggs and place in an incubator or let her do the incubation?

Can we see a shot of the eggs in the incubator if that is the way you went?

I am letting her do the work and it seem's to be going fine. I got a look underneath her the other day and all the egg's look great but one. The 1 egg is yellow and all the others are white. By mid april they should be hatching.

How big is that girl? I have a 15-16 footer getting ready to lay her eggs any day now. I'm hoping for 40 as well.

reticbite Feb 28, 2007 03:42 PM

She is only around 13 to 14 feet.I was suprised she laid so many.

take some temperature readings between her coils? I would be very interested in that information. Corresponding substrate temps would be interesting as well. What date did she lay?

I have a probe in the egg cluster and it stay's around 87 deg. The cage temp is 84 to 87 deg. I keep the hummidity at 80% and almost all the eggs look great. 1 has a clear spot on the egg but the rest of the egg look's good, and I have 1 yellow egg in the bottom of the pile. She laid on 1-29-07 so I hope mid april they will hatch.
