I have a question about eggs

tildenalso Aug 11, 2005 10:29 AM

I was not trying to breed my female but she laid eggs a month and a half ago. I was not prepaired so I let her take care of them. Just a couple days ago two of the eggs started turning a little brown. The other two still look really good. Should I leave the brown eggs or leave them since they don't have that long to go? If anyone has a suggestion I would appreciate it.
Thanks, Jennifer

She was with our male when we moved to our new house. I did not think that they would get it on then. I guess they were not stressed out at all. LOL
I did not candle them, she is very protective so I did not want to upset her. I guess I will leave them in there. There is only a few more days to go. I was just a little worried. Thanks.
