Possilby infertile eggs?

I bred my female, Olive on the 15th and she laid her eggs today. There were 23 perfect eggs buried in her laying bin, all of a nice size, shape and color. My question is, can these eggs be fertile since she laid them 13 days after being put with my male? I have never had a female lay so quickly. Any insight would be much appreciated. The last pic is of Olive after laying her eggs. Thanks!

I mean judging from those pictures they look very well formed... I would just incubate them anyways and keep an eye on em.
 
I had the same thing happen to me at 20 days. So I treated them as if they went the whole 30 days, so far they are still good after 1 months gone by. Keep them & stay hopeful......
 
I have them in vermiculite already. Here is a better pic of the eggs. They all look the same with no yellow. My guess is fertile but I guess I will know for sure in a couple of weeks when they mold over or not. Just have not had the short time between breeding and laying.

Thanks Joe. If they have not molded after a month I would say yours are good although anything is possible. Let me know if they go bad.
 
Are these Ambilobe?

One thing I'd look for when they hatch is how strong the babies are, and how they develop. It'd be interesting to know that information, as it seems a lot of people have been having females laying early.

I had some early eggs back february laid after only 20 days all but 2 are still good. I just had some laid after only 15 days so still waiting to see on those ones. Here's hoping they are good. How are yours so far?
