Haha
I'm too impatient for breeding snakes really lol, but the results are worth it aren't they

My first clutch (last year) took 62 days to start pipping, n the last one didn't hatch until about 2 weeks later!
These are at a much steadier and higher temp than last years though, so they should hatch at about the same time!

yeah i will do i do the looking thru the glass thing about 8/9 times a day lol

Exciting stuff :D
A couple of mine have just started to collapse inward today, they're only 49 days old though! added more water etc but I don't think it's because they are dehydrated.. Might just have been a quick clutch :)

I just keep looking in through the glass half expecting half hoping that something will have happened, but nothing major yet.

Keep us posted on how your eggies are doing!

i always take advise. lol it has put my mind at rest but now im more egg-cited to see them hatch.lol sorry about the play of words

Ahhh you took my advise then. Yes if there pinky, have veins and movement there are fertile.
Bad eggs go yellow and dark and will collapse, you cant see anything in them atall.
Im glad your mind is now at rest and you knoe there ok
