My first time breeder laid her third clutch in her water dish!I came home from work and got them in the hovabator as soon as I could. Also one of the eggs was the size of a pea and the other was the biggest egg I ever seen from a leo almost twice the size of her others. Has either one of theese happened to anyone? any advice?

Thanks

If they were totally submerged then they might have been drowned. Incubate as usual and candle them in a week or so. Egg sizes vary between different females. Normally, the larger the female the larger the eggs. Small eggs produce small babies and they are sometimes harder to get started when they hatch. Also, young females may have irregular sized eggs. They should even out after a few clutches.
