luckily the eggs are quite hardy and in all but the most advanced cases of mould it can just be wiped off with a cotton bud and maybe leave the lid of the tub open a bit to allow some water to escape via evaporation, lowering the humidity.

not a very scientific method but it worked fine for me! Very Happy

I shall try giving them a wipe then Smile

I don't think I can do anything about the light, everything is on a strict 16:8 light dark cycle

these eggs should be kept cool and humid

I incubate mine on a pot filled with water resting on mesh over the top, on a shelf inside a plastic ventilated tank.

They are high altitude animals naturally so they do not require heat and can take between 3 months and 2 years to hatch, (towards the longer end of the scale if partogenically reproduced).
