Well, it's been 10 weeks since Rubi laid, and three have been incubated. Now, two are big and seem full of fluid, and the third has just started to dent in, and yesterday afternoon a slit was noticed... 24h later and no sign of a snakey head!! How long?
There was never any guarantee these would survive (she was supposed to be a virgin male LOL) so although excited still looking on the fact they are nothing, but don't want to damage just in case!!

Thanks, I'm defo keeping watch! And it's incredibly hard to not intervene! I keep watching to see if I can see movement, but I wet to our reptile shop earlier and saw just how tiny 2month corns are so doubt is even notice haha!

I have been reading online and in the Love's book and it says a few slits may appear shortly before pipping, so I've just gotta sit on my hands and wait! Blah!!

they are normally out within 24 hours of slitting the egg, i'd just keep an eye on it. hopefully it's o.k and will be out soon
