Eggs changing color please help?

[TLreptiles]

So my eggs are about a month old. All 18 came out perfectly white. No fungus has grown and the eggs have no turned yellow. All 18 eggs have veins but I have noticed some of the eggs are turning almost clear? Part of the egg is still white the other is clear almost see through? Still has veins growing is this normal or just alright? First time breeder kind of nervous. I have also noticed I use the reptibator and the temps inside the actual eggs container is 84 but the vermiculite is still just room temp or kind of cool will this matter?

The clear spots are from a lack of calcium, your girl was needing a bit more in her diet. They REALLY need a lot of calcium to develop all those eggs. As long as they look healthy+ plump, they should still hatch....and your temps. are fine.

I agree with AHBD clear eggs or clear spots are from a lack of calcium.

Yeah I mean it seems like 3 or 4 of the eggs are turning clear but like I said they still have veins growing. Does this mean they will still hatch?

Sometimes pure white eggs when laid will absorb so much water the shells will get thin and seem clearer. I have some due to hatch next week and I can see little scrapes on the inside from the babies moving around. It only means there is lack of calcium if there are clear spots when she lays them, not so much after they have doubled or tripled in size from growth. As the baby gets bigger, the inside of the egg looks darker as they get closer to hatching. Some eggs from one female may get twice the size of eggs from another female, but the babies inside could be the same or opposite.

I've never noticed the clear spots having anything to do with size, or water absorption. I've had huge eggs that are perfectly white from start to finish, and a very few at times that have clear spots are not particularly bigger than others, it's just random . At any rate, they can still hatch just fine.
