Hi everyone. Ive a clutch of 4 Rhampholeon Uluguruensis eggs which have been incubating for 125days. 1 of the eggs looked like it was sweating this morning & had shrunk, ive got home tonight to find the shell really soft with a pinkish blob protruding from one end about 4mm in length do you think it could be part of the egg sac that has burst out whilst its trying to hatch as the shell is so thin?
Please can anyone help.
Thanks so much Heatherxxx
 
No worries Heather! Pictures would help people tell you what is going on. Are the eggs close to hatching?

I am not up to date on Uluguruensis. :( Hope someone can come along and tell you what's wrong... just trying to get as much info as possible for people who are a little more informed with this species.
 
thanks Syn, Im sure they must be close to hatching most of the egg is dark apart from the top portion & this one Im sure was sweating this morning. Sadly I cant find any info on their care much at all especially egg development. Dont know anyone else keeping them. Ive just looked at my pair & think I may have more eggs on the way as he is courting her again!:)

Sadly the little guy didnt make it, the egg started to colapse so I thought I would try & help him out he was fully formed & so tiny bless him It was the egg sac that was protruding like I thought so dont know if his air supply was cut off? Just praying the other 3 hatch OK. Heatherxxx
