Default my eggs!

here are the photos of the steno eggs i have incubating. do you think they look any good? the one at the bottom of the photo is nearly 60days old. the top one doesnt look so great to me. none of them smell or are mouldy, but none of them are pink either.

are you sure that the sand is dry?
they don't seems good, have you already candled them? in the egg of 60 days you should see an embryo or a dark shade if it's good...

the sand is dry. iv candled them they just seem yellow. but i would have thought if they where no good then they would have gone mouldy and foul smelling. just dont dont want to get rid of them if theres a chance.

they are hard shelled eggs, they not degenerate if the shell is intact (without holes).. if at 60 days they are yellow, unfortunately they are infertile..

Thought I'd bump this rather than making a new thread.

I'm getting a group tomorrow hopefully and I just have a few questions..

1) How often should I dampen their sand so it'll hold up burrows? I don't want to make it too humid and so cause respiratory problems, but obviously totally dry sand won't hold burrows. I made them a few hides already using excavator clay and they have some wooden tubes with holes in(designed for hamsters haha) to go in too.

2) Generally how big should livefood be for adults? I have a roach colony so I can pick out baby roaches for them. I've also got a bag of crickets coming, I think it said they were 4-7mm long? Do you think that's small enough?

3) Generally how much should I feed them a day? Obviously in a group they might not get the same and so I was thinking of giving them a little extra so each one of them finds some food at least.

4) Is it safe for them to catch prey from loose sand? I know leopard gecko owners worry about impaction from sand, but then these guys dig in it and such so I imagine they're okay?

I am trying to get a small group of these, i am kicking my self in the butt for not getting them when i had the chance. later i had a chance to pick up stendo pettri but once again i had passed on this opportunity.

Now i have downsized a part of my collection and i feel like i have a to fill a gap with a new project, and i would like to find these.

i had seen some on kingsnake classifieds, but it was from reptile underground and they were asking about $15.00 per, i think my local shop was selling for around 10.00


Damn Well ill continue the search.
