How many hatchies did you get Phil?

Thanks guys but before I read all your helpful replies, especially the one from BS, I had them on BC! Any disadvantages to this medium that you know of?

paper towel for a few weeks then breeders choice, paper towel I spray then once they are on bc I put in a little water bowl

Only 6 from the original 14 eggs Greebs 3 I originally thought were duds and I threw away during the first week,2 went belly up in the second week, 2 in the last and one egg I opened today after the last successful one hatched two days ago. This one had a fully formed but dead animal in it. Still, for my first ever breeding I am happy.

Olive, is that to assist with their first shed? Do they need a higher humidity as hatchlings in order to assist with this first shed? Thanks for the replies
