Marking eggs?

[Irwin4530]

I notice in many of the photos of eggs,
they are marked...what do you use to do that with
without harming your eggs? I only have one right
now but I am anticipating more!

Yes, I only mark the ones I suspect are non fertile eggs!

I incubate one clutch per incubator, therefor my markings are at a minimum.

Pencil of any kind works just fine.

But arent you afraid that the chemicals from the markers will leech through?

Nope.......All are non-toxic, and I've used all on a myriad of different species.......
