do you find that some window eggs tend to grow mold on them?

mistysprouse Jul 29, 2004 02:00 PM

I candled it and it is still good, but it is starting to grow mold on the window part only. I was just wondering if this is a common thing that occurs. the pic is from the day the eggs were laid, doesn't show the mold.

ps I am not freaking out or anything I was just curious.

That looks like a weak egg, but they can still hatch fine. I've had some like that, and they did mold very easily, (due to the fact that... that part of the egg is dead) but most hatched. The baby may be smaller or may be as large as the others. I have always used a damp paper towel to wipe away the mold as it occured.

Thats all I know.
