Hey People,
My Atherton python just laid some eggs over the weekend, was away so they could have been laid in the last 60 odd hours and there was a good clump, but she laid them away from the moist vermiculite onto cardboard. There was 9 eggs, and 1 slug at the bottom.
I transferred the clump onto the cardboard and stuck them in an exoterra incubator on 31 degrees, onto moist vermiculite (with cardboard at bottom as its stuck there) and some water in the bottom hydration try, but a couple eggs are disfigured which appears normal, couple indents, but they seem pretty dry.
Do you reckon it would be worth giving them a light spray of water? or do you think the incubator will provide sufficinet moisture? Also never had to deal with a slug I cant detach without killing other eggs, any advice on this?
Cheers,
