    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Opening incubator door and taking out containers

I have her well fed and doing great. Should I get rid of the one edd that is very sunken in and secreting a little? I don't want it to harm any other eggs but I also don't want to remove it if it has a chance. I am only a week or so into the incubation so would a sunken in egg have any chance? Thanks!

You do have to get used to your incubator as they all work differently. what I mean is to monitor it closely. set your thermostat probe in there and also use a good digital thermometer to see how accurate your thermostat is.a loss of a clutch of dragon eggs is a big loss.

I have to agree with this statement... my incubators are off by a few degrees, the reptipro not so much, but the exoterra is way off. :( I really don't like the exoterra and have recently bought another reptipro.

You haven't had any problems with babies hatching out smaller than average sized at 8 weeks? That's the only thing I've heard of causing problems with keeping them warmer- babies hatching out that shouldn't have hatched yet.

I was wondering the same thing? I average 58 - 64 days @ 84.

I'd leave it alone for a bit. I have had eggs hatch that I was positive wouldn't and the baby is doing great! As long as it doesn't smell and doesn't have mold on it, leave it alone. (Someone will correct me if I am incorrect, right? :) )
