You may have read a while back that i bought a gravid amel, anyway she had 15 and so far all are still intact but ive noticed that one or two have mould on them and because they are all stuck together ive just been wiping the mould away and changing the moss (making sure that it was the right temp first) but each time i come back to them the mould is getting worse and they are due on the 10th.... What should i do, just keep wiping and changing???? |

it shouldn't effect any eggs that are good so i wouldn't worry. i had one egg out of 17 that was like that, it didn't hatch but the other 16 all hatched |

Id keep it at bay, but ive read everywhere that mould wont effect good eggs, only bad ones, so dont worry too much about it spreading. i think it can attract flies though, which is a problem if they get to the eggs, so just keep an eye on them.
good luck, and keep us updated! :) |

Athletes foot powder is great for this .
I had one egg last year constantly moulded for weeks , I used athletes foot powder , wipe off with a cotton bud , mould reappears , do it again , after weeks the egg looked awful , but , it hatched along with all the rest :) |
