Bought a new cheap incubator, which worked well, but suspect that the false start prevented the others from developing.
What a shame. I’ve only incubated a few times and found that the incubator definitely needs a separate digital thermometer as well and there was always a few degrees of variance.
I had three eggs from the same tort but only one was fertile and hatched successfully. Since then I’ve only had infertile eggs but I don’t intend to breed anyway.
It makes Unig even more special. Naughty Apollo!
