| My Hondurans finally paired up and dug out a pit in a cave and layed eggs, i think they should hatch monday, but not exactly sure when they were layed (i was out of town). Is there anything i should be doing in the meantime? | |

| Yeah, they are great parents. They probably moved them. They won't eat them but you might see momma pick up a stray fry in her mouth and take it back to the brood and spit it back out. Mine is constantly keeping watch over her babies trying to round up the stray newborns and keep them in one spot. She'll also stir up the substrate and spit food towards the babies to feed them. Incredible parents! | |

| hmmm never would of expected that unless she thought they were in danger. Usually they are great parents and will fight to the death to defend the young. | |
