I have been having issues with my highland variabilis pair. I have 1.1 in a 15H vert that are 14-16 months old. They have been producing eggs for 8-10 months now and I have gotten 8 healthy froglets from them in that time. However most of the eggs they lay are infertile or don't develop completely. The incomplete development I assumed was an issue with vitamin A so I seperated the pair for 2-3 months and began a biweekly human grade vitamin A supplementation, which I am continuing currently. When I put the pair back together it seems I am just not getting fertile eggs, I've had maybe 1 or 2 out of 30 start to develop. They always lay in filmcanisters just under the waterline.
Anyways I can't seem to figure out why I can't get more fertile eggs from them.
I feed 2 times weekly and dust each time with Repashy ICB.
I have considered adding another male to see if I can boost fertility, since this has been an on going issue for this pair. However it is possible that this isn't the issue...
any ideas?
