Colubrid eggs are easy to hatch and tough as hell. Just look at how many people screw up like mad but get maybe one or two aspects of incubation right and still hatch out babies... as I say about my job, not rocket science and a mostly idiot work.

Someone posted their egg box for hognose eggs a while back and the eggs were covered in wet moss and there was water droplets all over the box, they said they always hatch their eggs like that...hognose are a snake of sandy, well drain, upland habitat that lay their eggs in dry sand there is nothing but the temps that can be right about their egg box. Point is, go for it and you will likely get better, bigger, healthier hatchlings than your corns were.
