I got my first clutch of eggs for the season this morning. Four eggs from a Sable to a Dark Captive Hatched Female I raised up. This is the end of the good news.
I have a rolling cart in my snake room that I use during cleaning. I took the tub out of the rack and sat it on the cart. The female was not wrapped around her eggs so I grabbed one of the eggs and sat it in an open container on the cart. I then reached in for the second egg and the female jumped back. As she jumped back she threw her tub into the other tub with the egg in it. Both tubs, snake, and all four eggs fell off the cart and hit the floor. It scared the crap out of me. I got the female in another tub in the rack and got the eggs into their incubation box. Three eggs are showing good veins and one egg has weak veins. Only time will tell how bad I screwed up!!!
I have learned from my mistake and hope the eggs will be okay.
I have talked with one other person who dropped an egg box but his was further into incubation. He only had one egg out of six hatch.
Thanks
