Cherry shrimp dropped half her eggs but kept half

Post by Shrimp&Snails »

My cherry shrimp became berried on the 19th June and dropped just over half of the eggs on the 20th.
She's still carrying the remaining eggs.

Will the eggs hatch or will she lose them with her next moult?

Thanks in advance.

If she still has them, they will likely hatch. I've seen this with young mothers, or ones that have eggs just after they arrive.
