I don't know if you saw this one or not from last year, but after a couple days after the others started to pip, I sliced a thin "window" to help the hatchling out as is sometimes typically done, and things seemed fine, but after two days, it still didn't have it's head sticking out yet. I saw alot of bubbles in the yolk at the slice area, so I figured all was well and it was just relaxing taking it's sweet time emerging. But after another while and I STILL didn't see any activity at all, I gently prodded the snake with a little rod, and saw ZERO MOVEMENT!

I was like,...what the HECK!. So I then notice that it is dead as a doorknob, and pull it out of the egg. Well, as you can see, I was freakin BLOWN AWAY by what I saw!....WHOOOOA!!!, pretty morbid!!!!
