Posted by: ssnakes at Mon Jun 28 09:03:03 2010 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by ssnakes ] A recent clutch pipped and all except one egg showed little heads sticking out. When I cut the unpipped egg, the baby was alive but refused to put his head out and breathe. After two days it was dead. I pulled him out to find a fully formed ghost with a large yolk still attached. The umbilical was twisted and I believe he died due to the inability to absorb the yolk. There was nothing I could have done, If I pulled him out while alive, he still would have died due to the large unabsorbed yolk. | ||
