to be honest I think only one egg is fertile too  didn't want to ruin your excitement yesterday 
It's not just the size of the others but the 'soft & yellow' look. It's always worth giving them the benefit of doubt though. Good luck.

We did not want to ruin his excitement too
But we had a clutch of 4 eggs from a het pied to het pied pairing giving 2 perfect eggs, one shaped like a nipple and small, and one that started to discolour and weep like it was rotting. Well the nipple shaped egg hatched this morning giving a possible het pied baby, and the "rotting" egg hatched giving an almost all white visual pied!!! |

yeah it's a shame though, first my orange boa gives me 18 slugs and now this! I will give them the benefit of the doubt though. and i've got another clutch coming this coming week so hope they will be better.

Don't give up on them yet, for what it is worth I think that two of them look good  not sure about the others though. When breeding reptiles you will get bad years, OK years, good years and BRILLIANT YEARS Now that you are getting the bad year over and done with, look forward to next year Might be a BRILLIANT YEAR
