:I put all my Tiaratum eggs (about 50 of 'em) into a container of moist sand. I then put the container right beside the lamp, and then, all my eggs turned brown and started to stink! Did I make it too moist or too hot? It's so humid in the container that water vapor keeps forming drops on the sides, and the temp is higher than my body temp. Is this bad? Will my eggs live?

hi james,

didnīt you had any air holes in the box?
humidity and temps around 25°-28° are good, but you have to prevent the eggs to get fungus.
standing water is very bad for the eggs!!
better use a box with holes, look after the sand and if its getting dry, spray it with water. but never ever make to too wet!

i canīt say if your eggs will still be good. maybe just keep them for a while with other conditions.

greetings
andy
