okay so first off i have this HUGE egg. it is way bigger then the clutch mate and was laid on 3-17. it is being incubated for female and its huge already. it looks like it is going to busrt! it also has a weird dark line inside it but on the outside of the inside. i was thinking maybe twins... i hope not unless they develop fine.

also the father to the eggs, juan, and my first hatchling ever, has a strange scaby thing on his jaw line on the outside. i was wondering if it might be the begining of mouth rot or something. just wanted some opinions.

It looks like herpes of the mouth!! LOL Just kidding!!

Do you keep him in his own enclosure? Could be a fight wound?
Have you looked inside the rest of his mouth to see the condition of that?

hes healing up. i dont know what the heck he did. he is alone but hes almost normal again. im probably just being an over protective mom. thanks

I think we all get like that at some point! Im like that with the BP and the RTB! Glad to hear he is doing better. Maybe he just scratched himself while eating? I dunno.
