What temps were you incubating at??? That is a VERY long time to incubate leo eggs... That is more than 40 days longer than when I incubated some leo eggs at 82 degrees F a few years back... Normal hatch times when incubated between 84 and 89 degrees is around 40 to 50 days...

Are you having major temp fluctuations in your incubator??? That will cause some reptile eggs to go into an almost suspended state... Not really good for the eggs or the embryo developing inside...

Nope no major temps problems it sits at 28.2 centigrade through the whole incubation period, i have a herp nursery 2 incubator

I think my latest ones were only 60 days or so

I think 100 days at that temp is a new record... LOL

How do you like that herp nursery 2??? Too small for my needs but it looks like a cool incubator
