that's an albino in there.
also in regards to your eggs, you can just look at the veins and see that the membrane did not detach from the egg shell inside. the soon to be hatchlings breath through their eggshell, via those veins you just cut. by cutting those veins you put stress on the babies, which is what causes them to die.
if you want my advice...........next time wait until at least day 55. by that time the the eggs should be able to be pulled apart, if you do it carefully.
if you really need to have a peek at what is inside...........
you separate the eggs...............
line them up.............
pick up one egg..............
at the very top pinch the egg shell..............
make a small cut maybe a 1/8 of an inch.............
when you release on the pinch the cut you made will double in size.......................
use the scissors to open the cut and look inside...............
if you see the veins that are separated from the egg shell continue to cut a hole open by lifting and looking inside while you cut and make the cut around any attached veins..................
by doing this you will not put the baby in any danger and you can still have your peek.
use this as a learning experience.......their your eggs, but you shouldn't put the babies lives at risk because of temptation.
