Well she has finally got around to dropping her eggs Very Happy 5 good eggs, no slugs, weighing 515g making them 103g each, they all look pink and she was very well behaved when I took her off apart from one strike Laughing Now the long wait again Rolling Eyes

I've used Scott's 1 to 8 ratio by volume for the eggs and sat them on top of a thin layer of dry vermiculite, they are in a 9L RUB with clingfilm over the top before I put the lid on. The bator (that I built) is sitting perfectly stable at precisely 88f with no fluctuation between top, middle or bottom, there is a hovabator fan in the very top to circulate air and keep the ambient temp stable throughout. Now just have to cross my fingers Cool

I'm hoping the pastel did the job, and it was mostly him that was put to her, the YB only had one introduction so I think the law of averages it should be the pastel Smile All female pastel het ghost would be nice Laughing
