my eggs are 81 days old.
They have been dented inwards for around 4 weeks now (Ive increased humidity greatly and it didn't change them so they are not dehydrated.)
I know that the incubating time varies, but i didn't think it got much past 70 days..
A few of the eggs have yellowish marks on them, but mostly they are still very white.
If the snakes were dead inside them would the egg start to go bad?
Ive tried candling but due to the dents i cant really see anything, just a few veins in places.
what do people think?? |

Okay, so I thought id update for anyone whos interested.
I ended up with 7 hatchies:
1 snow
1 anery
5 normals
All of them have shed, and three of them have eaten.
I have a question though, I fed one of the normals about 4 days ago and it still hasn't pooed.
one of the ones I fed a day or two after has pooed twice. But the one that ate first still hasnt done anything. It doesn't really have a lump where the mouse was any more either, so i assume it has been digested, but not passed through..
normal? should i worry? thought about giving it a bath but its a jumpy little thing anyway, dont wanna stress it out more than necessary.

Pretty sure its anery, the normals have a plum-ish tone to them, where as the anery is jet black, no red whatsoever
Yeahh, my story tells everyone that you should never give up on any eggs.
(although i am quite new to this so i probs misjudged)
But yeah, eggs are much hardier than people think they are
Not all the time, it can take a couple of days or two months in my babies case.for amy of the redy orange pigment of.normals to show through, they had jet black saddles.for.all that time. |

Noo not yet :( nothings come to me.
And like i say, ill get pics when they have all hatched.
Just put them in their little tubs and left them be for now, a few of em were pretty skittish so I'll let them calm down for a while.
Might be able to get a sneak preview of the snow for you, he's so confident its weird!

Such a roller coaster for you! But I guess it proves that you can't predict what'll happen with snakes - they'll come out when they're ready :) |

Lots of normals look like anerys for a while. Yes the one still inside its egg is normal, I had one in the egg for 5 days, would poke its head out the egg to bite me though as I scopped up the others that had fully hatched though!
Congrats again! |

Two normals have fully emerged now and are set up in their little tubs. That makes three now.
Then there are three that have pipped (One pipped a couple of hours ago) and they all look like normals too.
Just three eggs to go after that. One of them is quite yellowy and very dented, so not sure about it. but the other two dont look too bad.
:D
oh, and no pics as of yet. Gonna wait for them all to hatch and then ill get some |
