    Re: bummer - Jellybeans

    Hi Wayne, do you have a clue what went wrong? No hibernation or heating from underneath teh cage?

    Kind regards, Steven Bol (from Holland)

    Re: bummer - Jellybeans

    Since these are a project I am working on, the cage with her in it has heat, a basking light, etc.

    Jellybeans are unfertilized eggs, and she only passed 3.

    The optimist in me wants to believe there may still be fertile ones inside her.

    Well if it was only 3 I wouldn't be surprised if she still had more healthy ones to come. Maybe these 3 had started to form to early to be fertilized during the mating.

    Yeah, I wouldn't say that just 3 jellies is necessarily the end of it. It is definitely possible for there to still be viable sperm to fertilize another ovulation, or fertilized eggs still inside.
