Well good luck with them are they ovum?
How do you do it? and what exactly do you look for? I only have some fulica eggs but i would like to see how they are developing do you think it would be too small to see anything?

suturalis or suturalis x marginata
I just look for shadows in the egg sometimes they move sometimes they are stuck to the side one even was almost fully dark except a tiny cresent moon shape on one side
i think it would be too hard to tell with achatina eggs as they are allot smaller than archachatina eggs

Ahh, I was just wondering as my batch is 2 weeks old and I can't see anything in them yet. My first 2 batches never developed at all. Have you left them in were you found them?

I looked at my first batch today, the albino eggs and they don't look as though they are developing I couldn't see anything at all and they are about 8 weeks now  never mind I still have the second 6 eggs so fingers crossed for those. Val |
