tangles Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I have some longfin bn that have just started laying and the male only sticks his head in the log and fans with pisspoor effort.And he is constantally leaving his post.Just curious as to how people get there eggs out of the log as they sick like buggery to the side.And they are right at the back.

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I usually just 'scr ape' them off if I have to with a butter knife or skewer or something.... This censoring thing is strange, it won't let me write 's c r a p e' because it has the word 'c r a p' in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quantum8 Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 how long you had these BN? Maybe he's still got his training wheels on and needs another couple goes before he gets it right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tangles Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yer I'm being a bit harsh. Is his first go, so I will let him have his way with them.Most of the females I have are bursting and he is the only male fanning so he is going to have plenty of practice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tech Den Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 If you choose to get the eggs out of the logs - usually tipping it in and out of the water will remove them or you could just use a wooden skewer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
