First eggs

dean38 Mar 12, 2007 07:16 PM

I came home today to my granite female sitting tightly on top of 6 eggs. She had left one odd looking egg on the outside of her coil. I kept it anyway, who knows it may hatch.

She was so tight you could not even see the eggs.


So in total she laid 5 very nice eggs and 2 not so nice eggs. At this point I chose to place them all into my incubator.

After giving her a bath I checked that all eggs were out. I felt a small hard lump at the very end by her vent. I'm not sure what it is. its about the size of a large marble. I'm going to give it a day or so before consulting a vet.

Thanks for looking.

the two on the right look like they're bad. did you candle them? i wouldn't leave them in there if they are bad. just my 2 cents.

Congrats on the eggs!!!

The 5 look good.. but, in my opinion the other 2 are slugs and you can toss them..
