    What "should" eggs look and feel like at day 40-ish?

    It's been a couple years and several species since I hatched a corn clutch, and the first one of mine personally. I forget what the eggs are supposed to "do" as they develop -- do they stay nice and firm like crestie eggs, or wrinkle like beardie eggs? I have 2 clutches in the incubator, at...

    Second clutch, and should I be worried?

    My second clutch (the two sunglow mots, het and poss het amel) didn't go quite as smoothly as the first one with my amel. I checked on Crush yesterday morning, because I saw eggs in the lay-box, through the plastic side. I popped open the lid, she slithered out, and... there were eight eggs in...

    Is this a weird normal, or what? (white scale "tipping")

    This little guy came into the shop where I work, and he doens't look quite like any other corn I've ever seen. He's got white tipped scales in the middle of, and aroudn the edges of, his saddles like some amels have -- but he's darkly pigmented, and the saddles are clearly ringed in black. His...

    Good Guy Jen Boeke of JBsCresties.com

    Jen is a really fantastic seller. I bought some cresties from her a few months ago, she held them for me until shipping weather, and they arrived two days ago. Jen was my first gecko-by-mail purchase, and it couldn't have gone more smoothly. Throughout the process, she was excellent about...
