How big do panther eggs get?

[reptoman]

How big do panther eggs get? I took some pictures today of 2 clutches from my female ambilobe. The first is from the December 20, 2009 clutch and the 2nd from the Jan 23, 2010 clutch. I see a noticeable difference in size of the eggs from these 2 clutches already. Being my first time with eggs, does this look like the normal progression?

any thoughts on how the eggs are looking so far?

They look okay to me.
They do expand some in the moist medium in the days after being laid. that's normal.

These ones were laid September and October. both are panther clutches.

Very cool. Thanks for the reply. Its nice to know these are on the right track! Judging by the size of yours it looks like they well not continue growing much. The december clutch looks almost the same size as yours that are 3 or 4 months older. thanks again

Here is a couple for example.

laid 8-5-09(ambilobe)

Same eggs as above.

These eggs(8-5-09) are from the same group I just use vermiculite and hatchrite to see which one has better results.
The eggs in the vermiculite is a lil bit larger.

Ambanja eggs, dont have dates for these but it looks tiny.

14 eggs laid from a different female ambilobe (10-5-09)

10-11-09 31 eggs.

infertile eggs 1-14-10 hanging on to them just in case.

laid today 2-22-10, possibly infertile eggs as well.

Hope this gives you an idea of what your looking for.

They could still swell a bit more? Mine have been kept on the dry side and are a bit smaller than some I've seen.

Thanks for the pics. You can definitely see the difference between the fertile/infertile. I guess I can expect mine to get a little bigger based on yours laid several months ago.
