Still waiting for them to hatch .
Started with 20 eggs
Along the course of the last 3 months a few of them had went bad
One of the eggs started to deflate so much i assumed it was bad, even though I could see red inside . So I cut it open to see what it was inside because I was curious to know if it was fertile or not... This was maybe 2 weeks ago
What was in the egg was a baby dragon underdeveloped not near hatching stage...
Getting to wonder if the other ones are going to hatch..

My very first eggs I ever incubated took about that long. Mine were very plump though, yours are somewhat deflated. Just keep them in there until they either hatch or it's obvious that they are bad. Did you add water at any point ?

Thank you for your response ! Have added water during the incubating process not too much only when I've noticed that the vermiculite is getting dry. The sides of the container always have condensation.

O.K., it's important that the vermiculite stays slightly damp all the way through for the eggs to stay healthy. Any eggs hatching yet ?

One of the eggs looked so deflated and discolored I thought it wasn't going to hatch so I cut it open and there was a small baby inside didn't look the healthiest and the yolk was thick .

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
