Oh dear! Do you think there's any hope?

I wasn't expecting eggs for several weeks.

I went out of town last Fiday, came home tonight to find eggs. Poor little Delilah (Creamsicle Corn) had laid on the floor of her cage. I feel terrible. I had no idea. No pre-lay shed. No sign....

The eggs look to be good, but are a bit dried out. (Sinking feeling.)

I put them in some moist substrate, just in case there is still hope. I dunno. Is there a chance that they'll be OK with some hydration, or did I screw up bad?

I was wondering if there was any chance that this could be a clutch from last year. (Stranger things have happened.) That perhaps she'll double-clutch. I really have no idea how that works, but I do know that snakes can be surprising sometimes!
