Never been so frustrated with a clutch before, two more hatchlings piped out today neither one fully absorbed it yolk sac these are just tiny 4g hatchlings.
So I start looking more closely to the eggs left to hatch two looked green. Cut them open no surprises, as I thought dead snakes. Although I will note the two dead in egg had absorbed the yolk sac completely and were triple the size of the ones that have escaped the egg.
Can I blame the mom, I've hatched two separate clutches out of this same set up this year no problems. I don't think I want to bread this mother again.
Still 10 eggs left......
