Finally after 160 days 2 of 3 eggs have started to hatch and I expect the 3rd. right behind them. I started with 5 eggs from one of my two females. One was bad from the start and one went bad about a month ago. I have another female and all 5 eggs from her were bad from the start.

To post pictures you need to upload you photos onto the web. You can do this with photobucket or kingsnake photo gallery. After that you do this.....

Congrats, it must be the season! Mine started hatching this week too. Two are already out of the eggs and four more are pipped but still absorbing their yolk. I incubated mine at 79-81 and they were laid the first week of July; so they didn't cook as long as yours. What temps did you use to incubate them? I'll figure out the posting thing this weekend and get some pictures up also.

I tried to keep mine in the same range as well. Sometimes it got a little warmer on warm days. The 2nd. Gila is out and I'm still waiting on the 3rd. now 162 days. This last egg was the largest--any chance of twins?

The 3rd. and final hatched and crawled out of the egg today. Took 164 days.
