That pic is after about 2 weeks, all you could see were the veins and a dark blob. As they get closer to hatching you can start to see the whole animal, even pattern, eyes and them wriggling around. But you always will see some veins if they are fertile.

The ones that are due for hatching soon, have gone from a pinkie colour to grey.
They are in vermiculite 1:1 and in incubator from 28 degrees to 30 degrees.
This is when they hatched: http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/9...55smallzs8.jpg
This is now http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/7...2007428vj6.jpg
Any help would be appreciated.

Age/Gender: 23  | | | | As long as they don't smell and dont have mould growing on them they still have a chance of hatching. I wouldn't throw them out just yet - wait until say a week after the hatch date has passed and then maybe chuck them. What are they?
Good luck |
