I have eggs that are reddy/yellow admitted they were pygmy chams not yemens and must admit I wrote them off- didnt throw them away as they werent mouldy just very discoloured, These eggs hatched out and perfect little babies even though they looked yukky.I must admit I was very sceptical that they would do anything though, so dont write them off too soon.
love jan

cheers Jan i would be gutted if non of them hatched there all i have left the mother died 2 days after laying these eggs ands i sold the father so that i could use the setup for the young ones if they hatch. I'm feeling a bit deflated at the moment i suppose its the luck of the draw and mine ran out this time

Aww BB Theyll come true for you Im sure- God knows you deserve them to. Keep us posted on their development and obviously we DEMAND photos of the hatchlings!!!!. Good Luck with them Hun, you know the more of my eggs that hatch and the teeny babies take their first wobbly steps- the more fascinating I find them, every egg that hatches is as emotional a feeling as the very first one- you'll know exactley what I mean when you wake up to find a baby wobbling around his tub covered in vermiculite and giving you that "where the hell have you been" look!
Keep us posted please, love Jan
