Folks do not ask or talk, they take things and twist them, is some contorted way.

For instance. I said, they abort their eggs, not have an abortion.

The definition of abort is,

1 abort verb ə-ˈbȯrt



: to end a pregnancy deliberately by causing the death of the fetus



: to stop something before it is completed because of problems or danger



The part in red is what is meant here.

ALso, Egg laying snakes nest, that is, they build a nest, deposit eggs in a small cave, then cover and hide the entrance. When nested the eggs are gathered into a clump in the middle of the cave.

To scatter them around a box is not nesting. Its aborting the eggs, see definition above or look it up yourself.

This was stated below, there is a direct determination on how well the nesting is. Most colubrids can deposit their eggs successfully the night after the shed. Depositing within the first five days is in the good range. Depositing between five and ten days after the shed, is marginal, longer it goes after that, the more chance of problems.

As Gregg mentioned, the first day or two after the shed, there is little to no vascular development. By day ten, theres a good sized embryo. After about day ten, you risk the embryo dying.

Of course there is some variation to this as we all keep our animals at slightly different temps. The above are averages.

Lastly, its not misinformation. And all you have to do is try it and see for yourself. Of course there is a learning curve. But hogs are EASY. WHy do you fight me, and not simply test it?
