Re: First clutch (good eggs?)
Snakes eggs are funny looking aren't they? They look ok to me, except for the dud. The ones on the left look a little iffy, but I can't be for sure.
Can you candle them right after laying?

Re: First clutch (good eggs?)
They look fine. They just are lacking some calcium in the shell in points. When they incubate, those points will sink in a bit, but it is no cause for alarm. Don't worry!
The slug is a slug, and you do have five good eggs.
Candle the two on the side to make sure you have veins, due to the lack of pink coloration.
They look like they should be viable, but check just in case

Re: First clutch (good eggs?)
Thanks guys for the quick replies. About candeling the eggs, I read in NERDS book that is better if you wait a few days before candeling because it wil be a lot easier to see the veins in the eggs.

Easier, yes... But you should be able to see them NOW.

Re: First clutch (good eggs?)
Leave them in the incubator for another few days. You'd be surprised at the way eggs can "grow"
Check them again in a week for veins

Re: First clutch (good eggs?)
I would bet they will go bad within a week. However, like Heather said, it won't hurt leaving them in the incubator. I know for a fact that if you throw them out now, they won't hatch. However, to err on the safe side, I always incubate a good looking egg until it goes bad.
Good luck with the clutch,
