    Some more questions
    I was just wondering when the eggs are layed vertically when is it ok to lay them flat? Or do I just leave it as it lays? they are on day 51 I am planning on cutting tomorrow but idk if they are supposed to look collapsed or wrinkled? bcuz the eggs that I have are still firm and smooth any shared knowledge will be greatly appreciated thank you for reading my post

    From my understanding unless you catch them within an hour or two you shouldn't rotate it as the embro is attached and it could drown in the fluids. As for cutting I've heard people cutting on day 52 but I've never cut before day 55 and really try to wait until day 60 if they haven't pipped. and yes normally dimpling should be started by now.

    So since they aren't dimpling yet should I be worried?

    Not really. Sometimes I have eggs that don't dimple or don't dimple as much. Candle the eggs and make sure there's movement. I'm sure everything is just fine.

    Also, I used to cut day 52 but now cut on day 55 or after one pips (whichever happens first). It has made things a lot easier and I don't have to worry about the open eggs as much :)

    Leave it until you cut or it pips. Once the snake is breathing air you can lay it down...
