Pickle passed away at vet

[Pickle]

Hello. Thank you to everyone who tried to help with pickle and her pregnancy. She passed away yesterday morn at the vet after spending the night. The eggs were too big and too many for her body the vet said. I am trying to incubate the eggs the vet gave me since she said they might and look viable. She had 42 eggs.

Sorry to hear that. Is 42 average for a single clutch?

 

[Pickle]

I dont know. It was her first and she was only 5-6 months

 

[WTF]

Sorry to hear about pickle. Good luck with her clutch.

Was she ever in the presence of a male?

 

[Pickle]

Yes but seperate

 

[Pickle]

They mated but i didnt want them to i came home ... I thought she was too young

 

[Djturna4thakidz]

Ok, so there is a chance the eggs are fertile. That is good that there is hope. I wish you the best. The whole situation is very tough.

So sorry about your Pickles. My daughter just lost her female Ambilobe while she was laying. My daughter cut her open and retrieved 25 eggs. The person who I bought my Nosy Be female from, said he had to do that twice, and all the eggs survived from both clutches.

I am so sorry about Pickles! I lost my girl two weeks ago because of the same reason... I think mine's eggs were too big and too many as well. it is very sad, I know! But I wish you the very best luck with the clutch!
