Well I have managed to hatch 75 healthy babies out of what was originally 133 eggs which i call that a great success.
There were 110 that started off showing that they were fertile but as we know not all make it out and I had a few that did pip but then never got any further also a few that were completely out but had huge yolk sacks and again a few of them died which is always sad but I have learnt so much from this so far which is what its all about |
