Went downstairs to clean my rats, and looked into the incubator, and noticed one of my clutches (not due for 4-8 days) was oozing. I got worried, looked inside and this is what I saw:

So I got all excited and such, couldn't help myself and decided to see my ratio (normal bred to pastel):

I've got an idea of what my ratio is, but like to know what you guys think...

Also, curious to know if my eggs pipping on Day 52 is abnormal, it seems this whole season has been a little squewed....

Very nice Mykee.... I heard that if you incubate a bit higher things go faster....

That's great, Mykee! :) I see three pastels and two normals. You have to tell us when they hatch out all the way. Do you have pictures of dad?

David; thanks. Funny thing though, I incubated at between 89.2-89.6 for the entire time. Huh?
Jennifer; that's what I see too, I'll let everyone know when they're out.
Trevor; thanks for throwing that pic back up.

The 3 in the last shot all look like Pastels, and the other 2 definitely look like normals, so I would go with 3 and 2 too :)

Congrats!!

52 is actually my EXACT average. MOST of my Ball clutches have hatched on Day 52 for the last 9 years.
