Hey everyone last time I posted I had one of my females drop eggs that was about two weeks ago. Now I have seven eggs in the incubator go figure.
The last few times I had eggs they never hatched so if all seven go down on me I think it will be time for a new male. What do you think.
Thanks for the feed back

What method of incubation are you using? I've had great sucess with the method outlied on this page: http://www.albeysreptiles.com/incubate-eggs.htm

Were the eggs you lost fertile?
If you lose eggs, open them; or, candle the eggs after they're laid to check for the development of vessels / an embryo. If you find these, the eggs are fertile and their failure to hatch is likely due to incubation problems rather than your male.

the last ones that I had after they did not hatch i opened them and did not find anything but they all came from the same female. The eggs I have now are from four different females. I have tried candeling the eggs but they have alot of dirt over the shell. They do look like they have a red hugh to them but I was not able to see any vaining. Now we wait, I just hope I have something come out of them this time, it would be my first hatchlings. Fingers are crossed. Thanks for the site I will check it out
