Here's a quick egg pic. The speckling on the eggs is from when they were partially and lightly covered by the Bed-A-Beast. Only in the last few days has the center one died off. Otherwise the other 11 are still firm. You can see the one on top didnt get covered up much.

Those thin areas at the tip of the two closest eggs, I'm concerned those are failed attempts at pipping out, maybe due to thick shells. Is my concern warranted?



This probably looks pretty funny to a lot of you, what with the lack of sphagnum and all, but I decided to rock my own style on this to see how it works out. Most wild snakes dont have shoeboxes full of sphagnum to lay in or some other clinical looking experiment. I mixed around equal portions of vermiculite and Bed A Beast and kept the bottom wet and the room this sat in stays about 82 degrees all the time.

Anyway, enough rambling....hoping for babies anytime soon. Going on 65 days now. Thanks in advance for any tips
