We are interfering from the very start. With artificial incubation, the eggs are usually better hydrated, this means the egg is full of fluid, when the snake pips the egg is still full instead of having an air pocket.

Again, I have not had a ball python drown, but burmese certainly will. I cut eggs as soon as one pips or around 54-55 days for balls, I have never had a problem.

I remember reading on this forum once where someone stated they waited until day 65 and cut eggs and they still died. If snakes haven't hatched by day 65, I really doubt that cutting them open is what caused their death.
