After posing this question here and talking to a few friends I decided to try this method. I only had to try it on one egg as the other two eggs had shrunk down quite a bit. Honestly it went off without a hitch and was really uneventful, other than the initial apprehension I had of sticking a needle in my snake. Even if the kids DID enjoy "operating" on her, I was still a little concerned.LOL. I'll just keep a close eye on her to make sure she's o.k. Actually she has resumed eating and is not roaming her cage like she's on a mission. Kevin
