Roxys 2nd clutch
Yes Roxy has laid her 2nd clutch almost 3 weeks after the first, and I was shocked she actually laid 4 eggs this time :)
This time I have cleaned the eggs and numbered them, (and not with year haha) http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...psbz2q5l0h.jpg http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...psqn5mv0ah.jpg |
Way to go, Roxy!!
The eggs look much cleaner and easier to candle. So, fingers crossed in about 14 days we'll see a ring of life or veins or something positive, Bev. I bet Roxy appreciated her relaxing bath after that hard work. :) |
Good luck will be watching and following this post

They do look very clean now Emma, it only took me a few minutes to dig the eggs up this time as she had laid them in the exact same spot as the last ones, so the soil was moist and crumbly, I was very careful cleaning and drying them and kept them the same way up :)
Here we go again lol, at least the incubator was ready for them to go straight into this time, I did candle the previous 2 and still nothing so have taken them out. I'm suprised she could fit 4 eggs inside to be honest, they must have grown so bloody quickly I'm amazed :) x |
Yes, it's incredible that they have such large eggs inside them, especially so soon after laying the last clutch. It's such a shame the first clutch weren't fertile but perhaps they were her practice run. Now she knows what she's doing, I'm keeping everything crossed for you.
It's a bit tricky walking about with these crossed toes and typing with crossed fingers but I hope there's some good news before too long. ;) Back to being patient again then, Bev. I don't envy you that! x |
You can see they have a pinkish tinge to the eggs:0)
They will go chalky white if fertile. |
Well done Roxy xxxx
|
Yes Emma, back to hope and excitement, and poor Roxy was a bit exhausted, she had nice warm bath and something to eat :) x
Sandy, I noticed the pink tinge when I dug them up and the last clutch,the last clutch did go whiter but nothing else lol, so will be able to see better now I've cleaned these ones x Thanks Becci x |
What smart looking eggs ! I will keep everything crossed for theses eggs, I really hope you get at least one.
|
Good luck this time Bev! It is amazing how quickly they can lay a second clutch. I had no idea it could happen that soon.
