I am relieved. The guilt of having cooked the eggs was seriously weighing me down.
Now I get to be freaked out over how many will be hatched, and how many I want to keep and which ones. Would one from each clutch be too many? And should I pick all males or all females, or one male and two females, or two males and one female? (eek!) Or only keep one????
Well, you have a little time yet to try to decide what you would like to do about how many to keep, etc. I imagine a huge wt has been lifted though. 8)
YAY! Its an awesome thing especially when you candle them at 50 days and see them moving around in the eggs! Mine are so close to hatching I can't stand it anymore! I wanna see them so bad! ITS SO FUN! Your oops was a good oops because Digi is beautiful and so is mr pooks inside and out (except for that one time when he kinds left a huge bitemark on your face.....) we forget the bad moments :lol:
I think it's still too early to tell if all of them would hatch.

I hope I'll get to see pics of their progress. If I had to incubate them myself, I may never leave the house.
Not only do we forget, but we also forgive :wink:
Everybody got weighed this morning. Thank goodness both Pookie and MoMo are gaining weight
Pookie: 673 (was 605 on 5/12)
MoMo: 514 (was 410 on 5/21, after laying her second clutch)
Digi: 625 (was 699 on 5/12, but she was making lots of fertile eggies)
Glad to hear that MoMo & Pookie are gaining weight & Digi has a good weight already, so hopefully she'll gain more if she's carrying more eggs. How's MoMo doing? She's carrying infertiles, right? Or not yet.
I'm pretty sure that MoMo's making eggs as we speak, because she had started to sleep in Digi's cave at night again and really cut back on her worm intake (but still eating about two full bowls of greens, which is odd).
Oh my god, I just had a :idea: on why Pookie had stopped eating during the months of late April/May and lost so much weight! He was having sympathy labor pains/worries! Think about it, what other reason could there be? He hardly even touched his cheerios, which are his favorite.
OK, you can all think that I'd gone off the deep end of the looney pool, but you know I'm right. Admit it :mrgreen:
Well, :roll: Duhhh, I mean, what else can you expect from your ICC's! I'm not sure what you do to them, but they all are.... :study: Not sure what to call them. Supra-normal? They are normal,(if they were people) just not ordinary or normal for animals. :lol:
