Hey guys, this is my first post on here, so glad i found this site, seems like a great community so far, very helpful from the comments i'm reading.
I'm looking for any advice that can help me out.. This is my second year with a breeding pair, last year was my females first time breeding, produced a lot of eggs, around 10 clutches, a lot for a first timer I hear? 3 eggs from the 20 appeared fertile when they were laid, u had to look really hard though, a faint bullseye to start with, but soon died during incubation, and im sure all my temps and moisture levels were spot on. this season, i had high hopes and eagerly awaited her first clutch, looked nice and white, a little soft though and theres always one normal sized egg, and one smaller egg, dont know y though?? but sadly, i incubated them none the less but they candled yellow after 4 days and then went on to sink and smell so had to pip them
Just after some encouragment really, is it common for a first clutch of the second season to be infertile?? I Have witnessed them mating, on numerous occasions.
She is nearly 2 years old and weighs 57g, a very small female. and my male is 1 3/4 years old and weighs 80g, I do keep them together and they appear to get along just fine.
Thanks guys, sorry it is so long :s
