How long does it take to kill kingsnake eggs?

I let the humidity get too high in the incubator and a bunch of the eggs were bloated (some even had bulges).

The eggs are three weeks old. I've since lowered the humidity. The eggs themselves never felt like they were weeping. It was the bottoms that were bloated/bulging. They were on coconut fiber until I got hold of sphagnum moss this weekend.

So anyone have a similar experience? What was the outcome? I hate resigning myself to this rotten feeling of failure and uncertainty for the next five weeks. Argh!
