Hi all, its been a while.
I have a clutch of bredli eggs and have decided to leave mum do the work, although some people don't believe in this method... Thats fine, but I have my reasons.
I estimate about 25 eggs or so. She is a very healthy girl, about 8.5 ft and a fair bit of condition... considering she has popped out a clutch of bum nuts and if you didnt know you couldnt tell by looking at her. I was planning on giving her small feeds thru the incubation process, even though she would probably be more than fine with out it.
I was just wondering about monitoring the eggs. If the humidity is not right, ie too low, the eggs will cave in just like artificial incubation yah? I have noticed the shells feel a little tougher than eggs in an art, incubator, but i have heard this is fairly normal. So far she has been fantastic, if she leaves the nest, it is only for a short while, to bask around the light. If I go and have a look, she will return to the nest immediatly.
Regards Liana
