My female leucistic just laid a bunch of eggs last night. Some of the eggs are black with a white spot which I was told was the yolk. If that's true then I would guess all the white and black eggs are fertile. A lot of the eggs look like they may just be black. Does that mean they aren't fertile? I had a few that were just plain white, which I guess means those aren't fertile. I know you're supposed to remove the infertile ones, so I'm trying to figure it out.:happy:
 
If she's laid them they are fertilised. Axies don't lay unfertilised eggs in any number, although mature females may leak a few (<12) unfertilised eggs.

How many will develop to hatch is never predictable though.
 
last week i looked into my Axo tank and voila, hundreds of eggs laid almost everywhere. i have a huge problem destroying the eggs but I do not intend to sell offspring and cannot afford taking care of my current seven I now have housed my male in a separate home . He has a six month old companion I feel terrible but if i see them metamorph in the next week ... I must make a decision. Any advice. ?
 
You should post in the sale / give away / trade section. I'm sure you can find someone to take some off your hands.
