G. rosea Eggs Good or Bad??

[Redneck]

Well I finally got my computer and camera to work together again.. And finally got some pictures of my G. rosea's eggs.. Let me know if they are good or bad.. I think bad but they are still incubating.. Anyways here are the pictures..

Yes these are as good as I can get my camera dont do good in micro mode..
I sure hope they are good.. Please say I am wrong about them being bad...

How long ago was the egg case laid.

They look the same as my G. concepcion eggs I had... 270+ were laid, half didnt hatch and either went hard and dark yellow, only 33 out of the whole sack emerged and survived past second instar....
Hard to say really but they look pretty good to me

I'm not sure, just to be on a safe side get them into an incubator and see what happens.

Because I don't know all the details I can't be sure, but it sounds like you were borderline too dry. Next time, try hatching them with a humidity near 95%, and maintain a high humidity even after they start crawling around for a few weeks.

Better luck next time.

Bad eggs usually turn black really quickly. I'm very optimistic about the eggs.

I echo Satellite Rob: How long has it been since the eggsac was made?

wow thankyou for your reply to my post. That was my first ever egg sack I "hatched" ... I feel honoured you have posted to me as in my eyes you are "The tarantula god" lol .... but alas ... I have not been able to track down a copy of your TKG yet but am still on the lookout. Some of the eggs turned black with my sack too... Thankyou for the advice... I kept them in one of Robc style incubator with the box, water and tights/pantyhose ... I do not know the exact level of humidity though ... but thankyou

Those eggs look fine to me.

If I am remembering correctly, she surprisingly laid eggs sometime around the 21st or 22nd... something like that. So just short of a month or so.
Edit: searched and he posted it was the 23rd.

 

[Redneck]

Yea I guess I should have been a little more detail..

She laid the sac on 9-23-09
I pulled the sac on day 22 which was 10-15-09

When I opened the sac they all looked the same.. Minus 2 they were hard and black.. I have had them in a incubator like on Robc's video..

I am going to keep them incubating untill I know 100% that they are not going to hatch out.. If that means I have to wait another month and only 2 hatch out then I am going to wait that long..

I would just like to know if there is a good chance of any hatching out..
If I have left out any information please let me know and I will get that info. on here ASAP..
