Here are my beloved P.kuhli pair! They are 2,5 years old and cb. Its their first breeding under my care, and my first breeding attempt ever!

I hope you like them!

Very cool!

Have these eggs begun to turn pinkish inside? That's the key to whether they are fertile

You mean by candling? No i have not candle them yet.... I have no flashlight small enough and no time to get one! I will go today for a small LED flashlight and i will post the results as soon as possible!

I just finished candling the eggs...

There 4 inside the tank. This is my first breeding attempt ever so i may be wrong about the results!

As i can see, only one egg, from the second clutch, is fertile. I think i can see some veins in it. The others are yellow, or i can't tell for sure....

Only time will tell us from now on. I will continue to check them week after week.

P.S. One friend of mine that has bred them before (he is the father of my pair) told me to cover the eggs with somthing an place in the cap some moss to raise humidity. I did that too!

Did your friend mention that the plastic container you might be using to cover the eggs with the added moss MIGHT have a few holes punched in it for ventilation? BUT: He knows better than I.

Yes of course!

Elisabeth i never put your experience on the table! I know you have the knowledge and all... I just wanted to say it.

I write down everything that i can so anyone would see it. I forgot to tell about the holes cause i took it for granted. Thank you for mention it!

So as it comes to the eggs i will try to post some pics of them under the flashlight so you can tell me a second opinion!

P.S. I don't want you to be offended by the things above.... I just wanted to explain. When you right some things over the internet people tend to thing you are insulting them and that's surtenly not the case!

Best regards!

Really no problem here, Aias, no problem at all! I did not feel insulted. I really meant that your friend who has bred flyers would know better than me who has only hatched a single one. That was not a question or a challenge on my part.

In fact, I try to be super-thorough too. I totally agree that one never quite knows just who is on the reading end. One unfortunate thing happened when someone who was pretty young tried a recommendation of mine, and she had not understood a crucial detail

. I try to be even more super-thorough these days.

If you see veins, the egg would be fertile
