My amel is laying today, 7 days late! Dont know how many eggs yet though, looked about 8 in there but she wasn't done so didnt disturb

Have an opal in her laying box and a butter.

And I mated an anery motley and another opal last night so fingers crossed on them

Good lord 86! I wouldn't know what to do with myself, I'd be all over the place. Mating pairs - will they? won't they? Females laying - how many? fertile? infertile? Incubating .. Jeez, no thanks :p Not on such a large scale anyways. I really take my hat off to those who breed, specially when 50+ eggs are concerned.

*awaits pictures*

I have another 10+ gravid corns at the moment so should have around 300 at least before end of season.. I time it so a lot of the eggs are beginning to hatch by the time the 2nd wave comes along.. etc. so I never have hundreds hatching at once which makes it more manageable

I haven't really taken many pics lately, I really should.

Ahh I see, probably better that way, I don't think it's humanly possible to deal with 300 hatchlings by yourself at one time? It would surely bring on a nervous breakdown lol. So for said amount of eggs, how many incubators are on the go at one time? Is it one per clutch laid or sharing? Sorry, questions again :p x

I can fit about 100 eggs into one 3 foot fish tank incubator
