ok so I have had a total of 6 fertile clutches from my pair of beardies. my first fertile clutch from her was last year and they had veins and looked good but died after about a month, my second and third fertile clutches were this year which also died after some weeks and had veins. my fourth fertile clutch is at 87 days right now and originally had about twenty something eggs. some of the eggs were duds and I had about ten that grew and had visible moving fetuses. when these eggs were about 9 weeks old, a couple turned gooey and yellow so I cut them open to find dead fetuses that seemed fully formed but were pretty much bent in half with all of their organs out. the only thing I have found online that could have caused this kind of deformity would be inbreeding. there is no way my pair is related so this makes no sense. So at 85 days, with only four eggs left, one started to sweat. So I was pretty happy to see that, but by day 87 it still hadn't hatched and now it was sunken in. and the egg had a pointy thing sticking out on the side of the egg that was maybe the egg tooth? well anyway I figured it was dead because my eggs always die so I cut it open and found a SEVERELY deformed baby. it was totally bent in half with all its organs out and its brain was on the outside. its mouth was a circle, yes just an open circle. other than that it had a tail and toes. i can post a pic if that would help but its really sad and i don't want anyone to have to see that. Do you think it tried to pip the egg but couldn't because its mouth was so severely deformed? well the incubator did spike to 88 degrees a couple of times during the incubation and I know that can cause deformities like tail kinks, but something this awful? and btw i have two other clutches that are younger than this one so I don't know if they will be deformed too? and another one of the 87 day old eggs is sinking in now i wonder if that one will be deformed too please if anyone has any idea of what the hell i am doing wrong here I have been trying to get babies for almost five years and Im so frustrated and sad So please if anyone knows anything it would be greatly appreciated
