69 days and still no babies. i cut a small hole in the top of one of the eggs and I could see what seemed to be a well formed baby swimming round in there. I guess I will just be patient. I am going to move my temps up abit tho. Just thought i would share.

well, good luck with the eggs, i dont know why they are takeing so long bu there only a few days late, just give it time

also, PLEASE e-mail me when they hach. or e-mail me now, and maby we can work something out before they hatch

my e-mail is rmman125@sbcglobal.net

Just curious as to what you were using to measure temperature and was the measurement being taken at the surface of the eggs. It is apparently off considerably as I think you said it was showing an incubation temp of 88 to 89 F. Although that is about 3 degrees low, it wouldn't account for an almost 2 week delay in hatching. Thanks,

I just hit 69 days with my babies too. two have come out of the slime and are breathing air but are still hanging out in their comfy eggs. The rest are still deciding weather to join them. Its SOO hard to be patient! I swear all I thought about, and dreamed about was those eggs! Then yesterday I got off the computer around 4, walked into the snake room and opened the incubator..Looked around and their it was, tiny little albino head, I just about had a heart attack, I ran back to my room to grab the camera but by the time I got back all the comotion scared it back in the egg. Then way later in the night a second one popped its head out,..I bet you dont have that long to wait. Only feels like forever!
Sorry for how long this is..
