Hi, my leo laid an egg about a month ago (she did lay 2, but the other one had dried out by the time I found it). I've had it in the hovabator ever since, but I'm a bit worried it's infertile or something. It's gone the same sort of dark colour as the vermiculite, so much so that it blends in. Is this normal? Confused she laid her second two today, so I've got them incubating as well. The other one hasn't got much bigger than these new ones.

Can anyone help? Just that I don't want to make any mistakes with these new eggs.

Thanks,
Carly x

Have you seen your male mating her?

Could you take a pic of the egg so we can see, it's difficult to tell without seeing Wink

Hi, she was pregnant when I bought her from the shop not long ago. She'd definately mated, as she had the scar on her head.
Here is a pic (sorry it's a bit blurry) - the eggs are inbetween the thermometer and the water dish. I've got them at 80F. The dodgy one is the one at the top. I think I may have made it too moist? Any help would be great.
