thanks

They look bad from the pics, but wait and see if they cave in. I've had some healthy babies hatch out of eggs that i thought was no good. Mine used to lay every 3-4 weeks.

Yes by looking at the yellowish tinge on the eggs would give them away as being infertile. You can either wait a few days to check and see if candiling will show anything or just wait it out and see what happens when you have eggs that look like this or similer.

I agree with AHLizards, when in doubt, keep on going. Sometimes the little guys pop out of the moldiest, dingiest looking eggs In a week or two, try candling the eggs. This can be done easiest by holding them up to a thin flashlight. If you see any vein growth or pinkish colour, your eggs are fertile
