I found the female gravid Simus dead yesterday morning?
I will not get into details but I removed her eggs.
She died 14 days after her pre lay shed. I guess she was egg bound?
Here is a photo i took of some of the eggs.
Most are attached with a small cord.
A few are not. The shells are not very white and they seem rubbery? 2 seem to be better than the rest, they were the ones closest to the tail.
After about 24 hours I don't smell anything real bad yet , so I guess I will hope that some make it.
How do they look to you? What should I look for?
Thanks again for your help.
