EEEE!

Doris has laid eggs!

I saw something pale in the laying box, and wandered over to investigate - I thought she'd probably just pooed in there but no! She's curled up around a clutch! I can see about eight eggs, most of which I think are infertile - but there seem to be a couple of good ones at the bottom, so we'll see.

Pics to follow!

God, I'm excited!

Fucking awesome! But how can you tell if they're infertile just by looking at them?

Colour and shape - infertile ones are yellowish and oval, whereas fertile ones are rounder and whiter. Cool, ne?
