just got in from work and there's a moldy egg kicked out the cave that looks solid white/yellow in colour so i think there infertile. shone a light in and i can see some mouldy ones and they all seem pale white so he probably hasnt even fertilized them this time.... he's supposed to be getting better at it not worse!
really dissapointed yet again....

What a disappointment
, but he could be too young and inexperienced. How long have you had him?

Good Luck

eggs finally laid in the early hours of this morning, had her trapped for 5 days, then switched caves and spawned that night. i saw them wrestling in and out of the cave before i went to bed last night, at one point the female even had the male trapped lol
but when i woke up they we're in a different cave and the eggs were laid.
