I'm new at this. My ball python timid's eggs started hatching this morning.

Will the mother eat her babies once they hatch, if not when is a good time to separte her from her babies?

OK, a little lost? Are you saying the eggs are still with the mother and not in an incubator?

yes she is. She's coil up around them but she loosened up when the first one started to hatch. Is ther anything i need to do to help these little guys get out of their shell? Thank you so much for your help.

you dont need to get the babies out of their shell they will come out by them self, i would get a tub and remove the mother and im guessing the other BP is still in the cage with her? get him a tub and remove him from the cage too.
