in the wild they lay the clutches on reeds of grasses along the shore. The humidity is high and when they hatch they go into the shallows and leaf litter where they can graze without having to travel far. In a well maintained tank, there isn't often a ton of leaf litter and microfauna available, lol. Also, they can lay a couple clutches a week during the warm season each of which can produce up to 200 or so babies, even if 1/3 survive and reach maturity..it certainly ensures their survival.

Well I have been still keeping them in the container, changing top towel, and whipping lid. A few eggs have changed color to a kinda white but most are still pinkish. It's been 10 days sense found the eggs and 8 days in the box.
Is there anything that I need to be doing different at this time? Thanks

its really common for the first few clutches to be duds. Did you see them mating? Females will also lay infertile clutches as a part of normal reproductive health. I would give them up to 14 days and if no color change, question if they are fertile.

Will do.
The male has been on the female more times than I can count and for long periods of time each. I guess they are doing it. Every position in the book and a few new ones to me lol.
Thanks
