    I think my eggs are hatching
    It's nights like tonight that make me really hate my living situation (my reptiles are 2 hours away at my mothers house). I've learned over the past 3 months not to panic when my sister calls me in the middle of the night and gives me a weird description of something that is happening. She's really not that big into reptiles but was willing to take care of my geckos for me. Tonight I get a phone call at 11:30. She said one of the eggs is ripped and oozing. I had her send me a picture and I just want to make sure everything is still going okay since this is my first clutch to hatch (lost my true first clutch to failing to setup for maternal incubation correctly).

    Today is at least day 55 for the eggs. I don't know exactly when they were laid only that I found them on June 29th. I only make it up to my mother's on weekends. I will be going up tomorrow night and staying for a long weekend so I can hopefully get some good pictures tomorrow.

    Is this egg going to be okay overnight?

    Looks like you got your first pipper, congrats! The snake should be fine. Mine often stay in the egg an extra day or two after pipping while they finish absorbing their yolk.

    CONGRATS!!!!! When I first opened this thread before seeing any of the text I was thinking...Either this person is a huge snake noob, or there's more than meets the eye, cause it's pretty obvious when a snake is hatching! It all adds up now :P

    What was the pairing that produced these eggs?

    Lol, thank you. :)

    Mom is a NERD lemon pastel and I don't know who the dad is. It could be my spotnose, enchi or pastel yellowbelly. I am hoping the enchi and pastel yellowbelly got the job done and I hit some great odds. I really want a male pastel enchi and a female super pastel yellowbelly. :P

    Talk about timing... if they hatched a day earlier it'd probably be a sketchier scenario. Congrats!
