That bedding might work on your burms but I would really try a perlite and vermiculate mix with 1:1 water mix. If you squeeze a handful no water should come out! This could be why your having so many problems with your ball eggs. Try switching a clutch in your next season and I will check the video to see how you make out!

@chris4me123 This is a 1:1 water mix with straight vermiculite. I am aware of the perlite/vermiculite type mixture, and it is already something I've considered for next season instead of the "vermiculite only" mix. I understand the perlite helps with drainage and density. As I said, yes, it is already something I've considered prior to your comment. I will probably either try that mix, or use hatch rite next time. Thanks for your input.

Why do u cut them ? They should be able to do it themselves !

[albinoburm]

@MsLiew1901 Most babies can do it themselves, but occasionally you can have a totally healthy baby that failed to develop it's "egg tooth". When this happens, it is unable to cut the egg itself and it will be trapped in the egg and die due to drowning.

@jazskater007 thought spider was recessive XD

[jazskater007]

@bodioto Your theory makes no sense at all ?? Spider is a dominant trait both heterozygous and homozygous look the same "spider" but one holds more genetic power, making your "normal" het. actually a "spider" since there is no such thing as a het for spider. Technically the heterozygous form is the spider and the homozygous form is actually a "super" spider, with very little if any change in appearance. I think you need to learn a little more before you correct of which you do not know.

Man u definately need to make some more precise cuts. Those cuts look like a 4 year old took a pair of old scissors and went to town on those eggs

[bodioto]

@jazskater007 not necessarily because the normal may be heterozygous Xx and the spider must be homozygous xx so its 50% chance of getting a spider.

[jazskater007]

Could have yourself a Homozygous form of the spider there ! That would be awesome :)

This means spider to normal makes theoretically all spiders !! Good job man !

@WnJReptiles Ah, thank you :D

I am no longer confused ^^

[WnJReptiles]

@IrkinWarrierKirt its just the yolk sac and embryonic fluids and such.

im going to grill an egg

[IrkinWarrierKirt]

I have a question. I have never owned a snake before so this might sound absolutely stupid.. Why is there blood inside the eggs? Or is it even blood? Totally confused right at the moment..

[KonnorKonstrictors]

Isn't the one spider the one that you said was a bee for sure? I just had a pastel to spider clutch and my bee looks like the four light headed ones, bees dont typically have dark heads like the one you said was a bee. It looks just like my spider
