Oh, I gotcha. Then by his logic, I am a mass murderer. As I have had hundreds upon hundreds of eggs that have not hatched in my care. Sheesh, for the monitor eggs alone that died full term in my care, I oughta get the chair.

Or, perhaps, as experienced keepers, we know that some eggs not hatching is just sadly part of the deal. Those of us that are honest and don't make the claim that we've never lost eggs are able to use the experiences as a teaching tool. Over the course of my 30 years or so of hatching (and losing) eggs, I have learned that the keepers that claim to have never lost snakes or eggs, really just haven't dealt with that many. Perfection without any real numbers is easy to claim.

PS - no dead boeleni eggs here, but they did breed last night
