My First Clutch

Ok guys, I'm on day 53 and the incubator has been running at a steady 89.5 - 90.5 degrees. How much longer should I wait before cutting? I read somewhere that a snake could drown in their egg? How does this happen? I'm still learning the process. Thanks!

Wow. I just noticed a baby's head going back into its egg after posting my thread. I'm excited. The other three eggs has not pipped. Should I cut or wait? Sorry, I'm still a newbie.

We cut at day 50, but just a super small V just to make sure all the babies looked like they were alive. Then at day 55 we made bigger cuts to see what we had. If a baby is pipping though, I would think it'd be safe to cut the rest. Good luck!

There are three camps, cutters, cutters after the first pip, and non-cutters. You just have to figure out which one you want to be in ;) I'm personally a cutter. You would be perfectly fine cutting the rest, or just letting them pip on their own.

once one has pipped it should be safe to cut the rest.

Thanks for the help. It looks like I got 2 spiders, 1 lesser and a lesser bee.
