Did your last eggs go bad?
I don't know what you mean by survival rate but if you do everything right you should hatch every fertile egg.

I don't breed beardies anymore, hatchling care was to time comsuming for me but out of the many hundreds of beardies i've hatched i lost 2 fertile eggs.
They are a strong eggs and do tolerate slight temp slip ups.

Explain how you are incubating the eggs. Do you have an accurate thermometre?

ah well i currently i am using my old enclosure as the incubator but am also building a new incubator... my temp in the current incubator is too varying and is accurate enough so thats why im building a incubator...
when i say survival im meaning like in a batch of 20 how many would usually survive being fertile or infertile...

Neven, PM me mate, you may be able to borrow my incubator if you wish?

If you get a batch of 20 fertile eggs theres no reason why you shouldn't hatch out 20 babies, provided you are properlly setup, which should be your main aim.
Obviously infertile eggs will not hatch.
Remember once you get a good incubator setup you'll always be able to use it.

the eggs that i have had in the incubator are about half the 3/4 the size of the eggs laid yesterday :? is this ment to be?
