Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew what a healthy egg looks like. Ive never had them before, so idk if any of them are unhealthy. |

next time i'd take them off her sooner,the sooner there in an incubator at the right temp and humidity the better. if they started turning a darkish brown they sound like they may not have been fertile. |

Maybe. But shes really depressed. It was her first batch, and for a while, I left them with her. She seemed to really want to take care of them. Then they started turning a darkish brown
so I put them in the incubator....then they cooked :( |

I think you mean clumos haha :)
But yeah I should have mentioned that. I wish espher would lay them so they were seperate. I think itd be easier to monitor them, I always worry about the bottom eggs! |

There are a few threads if you do a search.
But really they should be creamy white not yellow, and they should stick together in a clumo after they are laid.
Infertile are yellow and firm.
Also, if you get a smalk torch and shine it through the egg a fertile one will have lots of pink veins, infertile wont and will have a yellow tinge to them.
If you could post some pics we will be able to let you know if they are fertile :)
Hope that helps |
