Well my female that laid a couple of weeks ago has decided that after two weeks she doesn't want to sit on her eggs - it's been about 5 days since she has been on them and they are starting to look a little dehydrated. So in order to try to save them, I've fired up the incubator and I'm currently waiting for it to come to a steady temperature before removing the eggs from Moms tub.
Here is my question .... What do I do if the eggs are stuck to the bottom of the tub? I know last year when the eggs had hatched I had to peel them away from the tub - can't very well do that when they still have snakes in them. I'm not really sure at this point if they are stuck but that would seem to be my biggest hurdle right now. If they are stuck then I'm most likely going to have to turn Moms tub into an incubator (crank up the heat and humidity) and hope for the best.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks!
