Sulcata Eggs

[gsvitek]

8 eggs just turned 90 days incubation. This is my 1st experience with eggs. One is spotty on the outside of shell. Is it spoiling or about to hatch?

It might be rotten. Hard to tell without seeing it.

 

[Tom]

Give it the "smell" test.

Let it stay untill you either see Phorrid Fly Larvae or it explodes..........I've seen plenty of nasty Eggs turn into perfect hatchlings, so never say never untill you see either one of the above.........

Ours take at least 100 days. Most hatch between 104 and 130 days. Discoloration could be a sign of going rotten. Usually ours that are fertile are solid white with no discoloration. Good luck!

I had a whole clutch go 126 days once. All healthy. Not normal for my girls, but apparently- it happens!

These are aldabra eggs, however it is a good visual example. The two with the small "X" on them are not fertile and the other twelve are fertile. Note the discoloration of the two that are not fertile!
