Default sexing amyae - 3 males?

Hi

I have been so lucky to hatch 3 amyae. 2 last year and 1 in March.

But to me they all look male.

What do you think??

Thanks for helping me out

At 27-28 degrees C. That's 80-82 F.

Should I incubate them at lower temperature to get females??

No that's pretty much what I have been incubating at too. Usually there's a 50/50 male to female ratio at these temps, seems like you just missed out on the odds and maybe i lucked out with the odds it's gotta even out somewhere or sometime.

Maybe my luck will turn someday I'll let you know if the 7 eggs I'm incubating are females

But what about the rumors that if you put the temp at 24-25 degrees you will get females? Maybe I should try that out with my next 2 eggs, in the name of science
