well the lizard eggs didnt hatch. they moved when touched, and were dimpling like stuff inside was beging absorbed. then later when i checked on them they didnt move, so i opened them but they were dead. I'm hoping my female, will lay another clutch soon, but it is kind of iffy. she looks like she could have eggs, but shes looked like this for a while, so i dont know.

Was there much yold left attached to the babies when you opened them up? I'm curious if they are absorbing everything they need before they die. I'm becoming a firm believer in not touching or handling the eggs at all. I always mess with my eggs a lot...candling them to see the moving lizards inside much more frequent than necessary, and I think this has had a negative impact on a lot of my eggs not hatching.

Same thing happened to me, I opened it 5 days after the last one hatched to find he had a yolk that was of a stiff consistency still attached, about a half the size of his head
