The eggs look small compared to the other pics I have seen. So probably pretty new. Any special attention suggested or needed.

Do they drop eggs sometimes? Or maybe I have another one. Did I also get a pic of one pooping. Lol

Yes they can drop eggs from time to time and sometimes when a female has her first couple of clutches of eggs she can drop a lot of them from my experience.

Ps that one is pooping like there is no tomorrow lol

I think I may have more with eggs on the way. Several of them have very large black saddles that go down the tail a bit.

Well it seems they are gone. Not sure what's up but have not seen mother with eggs or anything that resembles babies at top of rank. Damn....
