As I said it is their FIRST ever clutch so I can forgive him. He still did not eat tonight, so he may still have some in there. |
Infanticide is not uncommon in the animal kingdom, excluding humans, during first timer propogation. There is no way to know if somehow he knew the eggs were infertile or had some other defect. Fascinating stuff none the less. Hope there are a few eggs and eventual frye!
