Hey Im just wondering how long it would take incubating 2 leopard eggs at 87F? They have been in there for about 30 days so far and have lost all the white color and are all pink.

Thanks, Jeff

Around 50 to 65 days....... 65 days should be the maximum at that temp..... Are you trying to get all males or something????? I would do it at 85...... You should get a 50/50 at that temp.....

Hey Jeff! At 87 they should hatch around 45-50 days. They are pink cause they are fertile. You'll notice them getting darker as the hatch date nears. What morph are they gonna be?

Yeah I know theyre fertile, Ive candeled them a few times. My thermometer broke and the last temp I saw on it was 87 so I didnt want to change the temps or anything and not be able to see what it was, so I figure id leave it for now. The babies parents are a Hypo Golden male and a Orange banded albino female, the same ones up for sale. So ive got my fingers crossed they come out as real awsome looking ones.
