My Burmese Star laid eggs! Since I haven't been actively reading the forums for a while, this caught me off guard and I am trying to figure things out. This is laid by my 2016 stars.
The Green X was the first one, then 1 week later, the black X. Another week later, the 2 big dots, with one of them, the lower one, being a little elongated than others. Another week later, last night, the center one was laid. Found it fresh behind my large female's tail, still wet. Few questions.
1. Is it normal to have eggs laid with so much time in between them?
2. Is it normal for them to have different colors? The darker ones are just dirty? or are they not viable?
3. Is it normal for them to have different shapes?
4. Should I use two containers? Larger container? or is this ok?
I have them cooling at 19C now, but the first egg is already 3 weeks in, and the last one is still fresh, should I wait another 3 weeks or so to bump the temp up? Sorry for all the questions. Like I mentioned before, haven't been actively reading the forums and this caught me off guard. My first batch of eggs.
Thank You
