Default Candled White Line Egg photos!!

Ok, this is the first time I have ever tried this, and in theory the pics were better. But I thought I would share what I got anyway. These are my White Line Gecko eggs that are almost 8 weeks old. Comments and questions welcome as always!!

This is what used to candle them.

Nice Pics!! So you're waiting for eggs to hatch too!! The first pair that I'm waiting for were laid on Oct. 25th. The female has been staying close to them recently so hopefully that's a good sign.

That's quite the setup for candling!! I have a small bendable LED flashlight that takes a single AAA battery that I use for checking the eggs. Oddly enough I had a pair of eggs that I thought to be infertile. They were a yellow-green colour when candled. When I check a few days later ... same thing .. a week later ... same thing. I had pretty much given up on them as being fertile when about 3 weeks in I checked again to find a nice pink glow to them. So I guess the theory 'NEVER THROW OUT AN EGG' is proven in this situation!!

Good Luck with your eggs and be sure to post pics when they hatch!!

Dyesub Dave.

LOL. That's OK. I read it over a couple times again and couldn't really figure out what was confusing!!

My female is constantly around the eggs ... and only the pair that should be hatching soon! I hope that she's not waiting for a snack!!
