Welcome Adam,
Congrats on your eggs.
How long have you had your Hermann and what are their names ? When did they lay? What temp are you incubating them at? Oh and did I say Congratulations? Wink

My internet is down at home so having to post off work, Once its up..preying its today ill post the pics of my little one's including her eggs.

The male and female are both aged nine years. The female is called Babe and the male is called Owen. Silly names? hehe.

She laid the first two on the 12th of this month and i found another two four days later.. I was even more shocked to find the 2nd two!! is that normal to find more later on?

I have the eggs in a polosterine box which has two winden poles keeping a plastic box in the middle of the box which has the eggs in. A heat pad is under everything and im keeping it at 82.5 which i read was best to keep at. Im trying to learn everything i can about my little one's so i hope its ok! Ill post a pic of the incubation as well!

Thanks all for the reply's
