That's what I thought- I can see em!!
yeah, they are hard to see in person...lol
i will not be trying to raise this clutch, as thy will likely eat them before they hatch.
i am going to let them eat the first few... but after that, they should be ready to go.. (yes this is normal..lol)

yum yum
...............
but keeping them alive isn't easy.. takes some practice... Rob will be a pro soon though, right?
yeah.. it definitely takes some practice...lol
i will be keeping at least one or two from the first clutch, but yes, i will be selling the rest... either to locals, or to the LFS's

a healthy clutch will have anywhere from 200-300 eggs
people who are really good can even get a +90% survival rate too..

Great news Rob...best of luck.
Even with a 90% success rate being reached by some hobbyists, that 90% will still have a fair number of misbars and other 'faults'. Nutrition is key now bro!
I want someone to try hatching clown eggs in a kreisel!
