They are in a high quality egg incubator right now and are being turned 3 times a day. One is just old enough to be candled and it seems fertile. Any advice would be great!
Why do you think she is eggbound? Removing the eggs is the worst thing you can do. Let the parents sit on them; otherwise, the female will keep laying eggs.
