and the wait begins

[Unforgiven]

My female corn had her pre lay shed 2 days ago, so now I wait for her to drop

Just got a call, my corn is busy laying her eggs:D!

So when I go home tonight I will have a look and see how well everything went n take pics to put up tomorrow:)

[Chantel]

How exciting! Hope all goes smoothly

[Unforgiven]

I hope so too, her prelay shed was quite a while ago, more than 10 days (i think 16 if I remember correctly) and that was making me worry that there wereimplications of some sort

I really have no idea as what to expect from the pair though

I the female is a silverqueen(which Im told is recessive) but I have no idea if its het for anything.

As for my male I always thought he was a normal corn until I saw more normals and he is too stripy and has a very nice orange to call him a "plain" normal. So I also dont know if hes het for anything

But if he is a plain corn and she is a plain silverqueen I'll probably get normal het silverqueen?

Cant wait to see either way

as promise heres what they look like





There are 16 in total and all look good and healthy(i assume because I have no experience)the one on the side has a brown spot but otherwise looks good

I got home a bit late and so the eggs were stuck vas to each other, i have far too little expereince to use a blad to seperate them so is it cool if i leave them stuck to each other? thats what would happen in nature after all...

and I will be getting some vermiculite today as the previous batch i had was rubbish

Looking good. Don’t try separate the eggs, just get them into moist (not wet) vermiculite as soon as possible. Have you got an incubator of some sort set up?

I was thinking of converting an old fridge
