Thanks for the replies and information.
I got to thinking about this topic when my Western Yellow-Bellied Racer laid eggs 3 weeks ago. She has been my captive(kept solitary) for 6.5 years now, so when I saw her laying eggs, I assumed they would all be infertile.
Well, 9 looked obviiously infertile (slimy, yellow,squarish in shape), but one looked good. So, just for the heck of it, I set it up to incubate. I set the other 9 up separately just to see what happened. The 9 molded up in a few days, the 1 good looking one is still looking good as of 3 weeks. I am not claiming anything, just trying to figure out how this egg might be fertile- but I have to wait and see if anything is really developing in it yet.
