Whats the best way to

What would be the best way to get the eggs out before mom gets them all stuck together? I know people say that you just take them out before she coils them up but then again people also say not to disturb her till shes done. So I see pics of eggs that are seperate all the time and im curious as to how yous go about doing this. Thanks.

Technically, mom does not get them stuck - that's nature's little trick. I don't worry too much. But if you keep the humidity up, this will slow the process. At any rate, if I can easily pull them apart, I will. If not, I leave them clumped. I have never had any issues doing this.
