hi, yep they can hatch over 48 hours apart. there's not too much you can do. If you are VERY careful you could make a tiny slit in the egg just in case but personally I wouldn't, if it's too weak to hatch then it probably won't survive anyway, sorry.

Give the egg time and hope for the best.

If one egg hatched there's a very good chance the other will be fine Wink

I've had them hatch over 4 days apart before, I just put it down to that little one wanted an extra rest. Wink

EDIT: Though they were Leopard geckos eggs, I don't know if that makes a difference?
