Unhappy Not going so well

Ok, so this is my second year breeding, and its not doing so hot yet. Last year I had outstanding luck and all of my eggs were great health when hatched. However, this year, no so much. Of the 6 eggs so far this year, I only see one turning out I think. Also, I have 2 females that have carried eggs for way too long. They are both proven from last season and each over 50 grams. The patternless had hers in her for over 3 months before she laid her unfertilized eggs. The other has been almost 3 months now and still hasn't laid.
I can't figure it out. I have not changed anything from last year. They are all kept in a large rack system at a temp. of about 90 degrees. Each has a calcium dish, humid hide, hiding place, and food dish in her enclosure. The only thing that I could think is that I used a new virgin male this time around who didn't seem to really know what he was doing. That would explain the fertilization problems, but what about the long gestation? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks a bunch everyone
