Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

egg issue
last night was bad. I went to do my nightly check on the egg laid on the 11th and opened the incubator, it was off......it was at about 70 for who knows how long. Somehow the breaker got tripped, and there's only a small amount of stuff on that one. when I've candled it I see pink and veins, but it's slightly collapsed, and I don't think that 12 days is enough to be able to see the baby is it? What should I do about this, should I leave it in the incubator and see if it still hatches or just take it out.
On a better note, she did lay 2 this morning, just before these guys arrived

You should have no problems at all. I incubate my crested eggs at 68-72F (depending on the time of year). What I would recommend is trying to now keep them at that temperature, as I would imagine a drastic change in temperature would have the potential for doing them harm.
90F sounds super high for cresteds. The highest I've heard anyone successfully incubate at is 80F.
From personal experience, those incubated for longer at a lower temperature will come out larger and healthier than those cooked on high.
I just put my crested eggs in a cup that is 3/4s full with coco fibre, and bury them a couple inches down, moving them up to the top of the coco fibre when I know they are within a week of hatching.
Moral of the story is, you will be more than fine! The denting is most likely due to not enough moisture. At 12 days, I never see anything in my crested eggs, it normally takes until about a month before I can for sure tell if they are fertile or not. Mine take about 90 days to hatch at 70F.
Goodluck!!

if you only have crestie eggs in there leave them at 70 degrees and they should hatch out fine. Nice cresties you have there!!!!

no no no, I'm talking about leo eggs, not crested eggs
not yet, I just thought that I'd share my first cresties instead of starting a new thread in addition, sorry I should have clarified, Xavier knew what I meant because I got the female leo who had the eggs from him.
