My 2.5 year old female has been laying eggs for about a month now, and each set i find is already flattened, like they had nothing on the inside of them to start with. It's really odd. Her health is good, and she has sufficent calcium pouches in her throat, and good weight.
I was watching her lay yesterday, and when she moved away from the dig site i moved in to grab the eggs, thinking that i could get them into the incubator before they caved in? Nope. They looked flat and yellow already, like she laid them that way... I'm not sure why this would happen. Last year was her first year laying, and as i figured they were all infertile. BUT they looked normal when she laid them. I thought she stopped laying in october, and i just put my male in with her (he's 3 years old) probably in late october...but i only leave him in with her for about a week so i dont stress her out. I know that for a good clutch i should just keep them together, but i dont want to stress her out too much. Any suggestions would be appreciated...
