Beanie laid her eggs today!!! >>>>>

They are a nice white color and are firm so they should be fertile. They are in a shallow tupperware container with damp perlite in a hovabator with a stable temp of 82. I didn't know how mcuh water to add to the perlite, so I guessed. There is no excess water, but it is very moist and clumpy. Hopefully the eggs will do well. How long until I can expect them to hatch?

The perlite should be ok you don't want it to wet though it does not take much water. I will kinda dry out to the touch but it will retain moisture down deeper and perculate it out when needed. You are probally looking at about 45 to 50 days. Thogh some of mine have been coming in this year at 40 to 42, But I incubate ate around 84. Congrats again Cleo, don't see you on here much anymore.
