Eggs Ok ?!



This is my 1st year breeding my Ball Pythons and have been on SUPER watch of the eggs, incubator temps & container temperatures... This could make a person go alil crazy, just a lil... With two clutches in the incubator, it's really exciting and worryful. Im on Day 22 and i have notice alil change in my 2nd clutch. The eggs apperance appeared to be tight and firm, now they seem to have little dents here and there on them. i am not sure if this is normal or bad... My other Clutch didnt show any type of signs like these are...



I have candled them and i still see strong viens and are still looking fertile. I'm not going to think to much of it but hope they will make it to the end of the incubation... I got my fingers crossed !

Eggs Again !



Woke up this morning like any other morning... grab my flashlight to check on all the snakes as well as the eggs in the incubator... What do i find to my suprise, no pips...but SunShyne perfectly coiled around 5 healthy eggs ! What better way to wake up ! So, i was right on her having eggs inside just was lost on the days as far as pre-lay shed or lay date... I seen a couple of videos on youtube.com and seen a couple of breeders that just go right in and take the eggs without a problem. so i decided to do the same. unlike Ginger, she was waiting to bite ! SunShyne is one of my really sweet BPs and she let me pick her up and take the eggs right from under her.
