Unhappy HELP! CUT A HOLE IN LEOPARD GECKO EGG!

Day 47 of incubating 2 leopard gecko eggs they have been looking very bad for the last couple weeks dented dry looking, one of the eggs had mold on it. We were thinking that the eggs were probably dead this is our FIRST time incubating eggs. So he cut a hole on the top of one of the eggs and you can see what looks like the top of a gecko head!!!!! we put both eggs back in the incubator I put a piece of coban over the top of the egg with the hole in it because if it is indeed a gecko head it is now exposed but it is a small hole. what do we do? i dont know if the gecko is alive or dead or is it going to die now?????

Liquid band-aid (New-Skin) will seal the egg back closed. Just brush it on and it will seal.

And instead of cutting eggs, carefully candle them. Don't do it every day and be careful not to turn the eggs as you remove, candle or replace them in the incubator.

Eggs will suprise you ... even the dry, dented and slightly moldy ones are viable. Be patient and care for them as you would the "healthy" eggs until you are absolutely certain they're gone.

Good luck!
