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.

breeding question
I know along the way i made a mistake it was my 1st try at this
my citrus x citrus laid 9 eggs i got the exo terra incubator pt2499
and i used repashy superhatch in plastic tubs with lids that i poked pencil size holes in i put 3 eggs per container covered them 60-70%
after 2 weeks in the incubator every egg was covered with mold
the only thing i did was every 3rd day looked at the eggs and checked the humidy levels
i dont understand why this happened but i would like to learn how to prevent this from happening again and hatching out healthy clutches
any help would be great
thanks mike

If she only laid 9 eggs and it was her first clutch, the eggs probably weren't good to begin with. It's pretty common (for whatever reason) for females to not be very productive for their first breeding season, than take off after that multi-clutching with 80-90% of the eggs being good/fertile.

You may not be done yet, Mike. I bred a virgin female earlier in the year, and I currently have her 5th clutch in the incubator. Her 1st was 28 eggs, but only 8 of those hatched. Success rate has improved dramatically with each clutch (except for clutch 4 of 40 eggs that I screwed up). I'm hoping it will improve more next season. Good luck with yours!!
