Kunisar rats finally laid eggs.

pinelandsghost May 28, 2011 11:22 PM

I've had this pair of Kunisar Jap Rats for about five years now and was begining to think they were both the same sex. Never seen them mate, never had eggs before.
I have been watching and checking for eggs from them everyday anyway just in case. Yesterday I worked overtime and didn't get to check.
Today I find eggs in the hide box and not the laying box. Great. Laid today or yesterday? I don't know.
They seem dry but not terrible, not colapsed. They went into the moist medium and into the incubator five in all.
Wish me luck with them.
Mike.

Checked on them this morning and they appear to have absorbed some moisture and with the exception of one egg which was "bent" they look bright white.
These are really beautiful and gentle snakes. I would be greatly disapointed to lose eggs from these. So far though looking good.
