Re: whats on my egg?

they usually harden and totally calcify pretty quick, at least within a day or two.. but its been several years since I incubated a gecko egg, so I may not be remembering my times very well.

in my exp if it develops a spot of mold and is colored that way, they generally aren't "good" eggs.

but i've seen some pretty gnarly looking eggs hatch too.

is that a first egg from first time breeder?

Re: whats on my egg?

well apparently there is a swear filter. this is my 2nd egg. daddy ran on top of the last one and it didn't make it. this one is looking a lot better than that one. it seemed fairly solid when i was wiping it off.

Re: whats on my egg?

yeah, probably should re-read the TOS
profanity is a no no here.

does it look like a "window" into the egg or does it look more like a stain?
