Will this egg survive?

[Raging_Crocodile]

Last weekend when I was away, my female leopard gecko layed only one egg, and it is as hard as a rock, I don't know when she layed it but it may have been in there for a day, she also didn't lay it in her moist hide. I candled the egg and I could see the embreo, is there any chance that this egg could still survive?

I never know and couldn't tell you about this one. There's always a chance. Incubate it till it either hatches or stinks.

If the egg softens up and becomes full, does that mean its alive or is there no way of knowing?

If it gets soft and it's near hatching time, it means that the egg is going to hatch soon. Otherwise, I'm not sure what you mean.

If it starts to look like a leopard gecko egg is supposed to look does that mean its alive? Sorry I'm bad at explaining xD

At the moment I have a gorgeous egg that was laid 9 weeks ago. The clutch mate hatched last Friday. At this point, I'm not expecting the egg to hatch, so, even if the egg looks fine, there's still no guarantee.
