Just measured an egg from same clutch.I've got some that are like ping pong ball size.
I'm pretty sure that they are infertile.
Thanks.

Yes, I know it's advised not too, but how else do I learn without interfering? Novelty will where off.Have you ever "candled" your RF eggs?
Still early then. I was told 125/150 days was average for reds.29-33 days
One of them is very restless. My male, however has stopped persuing them from what I can see.Still early then. I was told 125/150 days was average for reds.

I just heard that while ago somewhere here. She sure looks like one. Really pretty!You got me thinking now with your comment.
I don't know enough about different species/subspecies/locals to be guessing her genetic heritage. This will make me sound extremely ignorant but I have seen a picture of a very dark RF referred to as Black Cherry and never thought about it again, but must have made a connotation on my head associating the picture of black cherry fruit, black cherry at a casino (winning and that's what looking at your brand new baby made me think of... I gave her a name not realizing that Black Cherry was a certain type of colors/patterns.If that's a cherryhead, I'm Santa. Lol.
Pearly, the momma is northern with very very dark skin and hardly any scale coloration, The Poppa is either one of my 2 northerns or some other male she has bin with over 2 yrs ago. She didn't lay eggs last yr so I was assuming it was one of my males. I could be wrong.
I'll take more pictures when the yolk sack is fully absorbed. I'm color blind and struggle with some shades of color. On the head it looks yellow(what bit of color is there).I just heard that while ago somewhere here. She sure looks like one. Really pretty!
