I got eggs.

Last night I noticed one of my females digging a hole to china in her egg container. I removed the cocobar this morning and found 2 eggs about 4 inches deep. One looks perfect, the other one is a bit small but they are both nice and white and have hardened up nicely. My tangerine albino leo also layed 2 eggs yesterday, and my other crestie was investgating the dirt in one of her pots with her mouth.
I have the eggs incubating at 82.2 in a deli cup with 2 parts vermiculite and 1 part water.

Congrats on the eggs!

Is 82 not a bit high? Mine are at 77...oh well, good luck

Best of luck with those eggs. I have heard that the higher the temp, the better chance of a male but if you incubate them in the high 60s and low 70s youll most likely hatch a female...even though it will take longer. Both of you, keep us updated

I think 'm going to lower the temperatur to 80.
