Hi Bob, Try this, take a small LED flashlite and go to wherever you have your snake eggs. Turn out the lites and put the lite near the shell. I will lite up the inside and you can watch it develop. Yes, its candling, but you do not have to touch or lift the egg, you can do it in place.

Then as time goes by, do that with eggs as soon as they are laid.

ALso pay attention to days from last shed and embryo size. ITs very interesting.

After a while, you will be able to tell by the size of the embryo about when development first occurred. Have fun
