flashlight and the eggs are pink! I could clearly see the bloodvessels. This
is great. :-D No I hope they will hatch ofcourse.
Most "hard" gecko eggs does not mold with us either but the "soft" ones do
somethimes. And the snake eggs always mold over when they are infertile.

Dear "Happy" Isabelle,
Hooray for pink power!! Now, you should see little Spider gecko hatchlings
in a couple of months. BTW, keep watching for more eggs as the female can
lay her next clutch within 2 weeks of the first one. I bet that you will
soon have more than two eggs incubating! :-)
FWIW, shortly before hatching you should be able to visualize the gecko
embryo (appears greyish in color) and yellow yolk mass through the egg. As
the yolk diminishes in size, the hatchling is closer to hatching. It is
really interesting to observe the embryo slowly absorb the yolk.
Congratulations!
Stacy
