You probably know my eggs are due to hatch since I wont shut up about it, but the top egg has started to go slightly yellow on top where it is denting inwards.
Obviously im quite worried as I know bad eggs tend to go yelliw. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
Should I be worrying?
The snake is still moving inside so I dunno what to think...
Kinda looks like its stained, but im using vermiculite n didnt think that stained like moss

don't think there is anything to worry about,if the snake is still moving inside the egg then it can't be a bad egg. there due to hatch any day so i would try not to disturb them because really you should only open the lid of the egg box once a week for an air exchange.
