Dont know, but if you keep records of everything we will find out at the end.My first egg is 45mm now, do only fertile eggs expand or infertile ones also expand?
None of my 5 infertile eggs expanded.

What is chalked?The first two look like they chalked the third I can not tell.
Just found 3 more eggs this morning, so I have 4 + 3 now in diapause. What temperature did you incubate at?In my limited experience, all the eggs appear to be expanding. The difference with the two that contained tortoises is that they grew oblong, rather then just getting equally bigger on all dimensions. Realistically, at this point I expect that the two eggs that were laid at the same time as my stillbirth and successful birth are bad, but neither have popped yet or grown to be more tortoise-shaped.
I do have one very tortoise-shaped egg now but it developed sideways... I'm afraid that there's another late term death in the egg but I'm going to wait until it hatches or obviously rots.
Nice one chairman. Dont forget photos when out too.
