How much longer

[bongrod269]

My female veiled laid 50 eggs on may 17th. So it has been almost 5 months. I have been candling them every two weeks about and finally at 3 1/2 months i started to see veins inside the eggs. They have doubled in size so much i had to make a second container because they started to touch each other They are always are at 80-85 all the time. How much longer do you suppose i have left. I haven't lost any eggs at all.

Veiled eggs can take up to 8 months to hatch...

I would not recommended handling them (candling or moving them) too much... Just be patient and wait it out.

I've had veiled clutches go nearly 10 months, but I incubate at a lower temp. There is really no reason to handle the eggs at this point. Just check them weekly for proper humidity and to allow for fresh air exchange. You'll see some tiny beads of sweat when they are getting close. Good luck

It might just be me but is your medium really dry? You might need to add just a touch of water but don't get water on the eggs.

If the substrate was too dry the eggs should start to dent in IMHO.

Humidity (moisture) looks good to me.
At those temps you should probably be seeing some hatchlings soon.
