I am beginning to get worried about the second egg.  How long can it be 
between clutch mates hatching in Uroplatus henkeli?  Should I help it 
along at any point, and if so, how?

Is there any danger of candling the eggs too much? I generally do it 
once or twice a week to check development.

Also, there have been two more clutches laid recently, both showing some 
minor dents in the eggs.  The substrate they were buried in was slightly 
dry, and I wonder if that caused it.  Could these eggs still be viable?

Thanks,
Jared
