>>can they be saved?......if so....how?
I have found Kingsnake eggs in the wild that looked much worse and they still hatched.
I have not had this happen with any of my eggs, so I can only offer an opinion based on what I have read.
IF, they were mine; I would add a very small amount of water in one or two of the corners to stabilize the eggs and prevent any additional water loss. You do not want to try and rehydrate them only stabilize.
The Barkers (See page 235 of their Ball Python book)experimented with moving dry eggs to a moister environment with negative results. They theorized that eggs some how adapt and that drastic changes can be detrimental.
