So for the past eighteen days my female A.met has been taking great care of her sac.. Never letting it touch the sub never mind putting it down to drink or search for food.
Well the last three days she has had the sac very close sometimes resting on the ground.. For three days I have been weighing the risk of pulling ten days earlier than I normally do for this species..
Well today I decided to risk it and pull and I'm glad I did.. I understand the eggs may not develop in my incubator but they deffinately wouldn't of survived in the sac.
Here's some pics..
Small but looks pretty good..
Hmmm. Not bad but something is off..
I knew it..
That mess was sitting underneath about fifty otherwise great looking eggs.. If I didn't pull today this clump of bad eggs would of ruined the entire sac.
Here's a crappy pic of them in the incubator I will get better ones tomorrow..
