So, I am back and could use some opinions. We have our first clutch of ball eggs, we had 11 and are down to 5 but these five look great. Nice healthy veins and can see them moving inside the eggs when candled. My question is, I know a lot of people cut their eggs and while I planned on letting them hatch on their own, today is day 60 and I'm still seeing no signs of pipping. They have been incubated at 89 degrees in a hovabator and I expected to see pipping by now. It's almost 3pm now on day 60 and I'm wondering if maybe we should go ahead and cut? My concern is that I've never had snake eggs before and aside from watching tons of youtube videos on cutting eggs, I've never been shown how to do it in person and I don't want to hurt them in any way. I'm actually a parrot breeder so I'm a bit new to having soft eggs that cutting is even an option. What do you guys think? Should I just let them all go until they hatch, should I wait for a certain time today and then cut one or all? I need suggestions!
