    Worms on eggs?
    Have you experienced having worms on your eggs? Because i checked my ball python eggs earlier this day, and notice some larva or worms. And some fruit flies.

    Heres the pic:

    It on the upper right

    If you experienced this, what did you do. Did you remove it or just let them stay there? I cant remove all the worms.

    Those are likely from gnats or fruit fly they are attracted to the albumen, so the earlier you cut the bigger the risk if your incubator is not airtight. You can't really do much except trying to remove them but again, you risk contaminating the egg, messing with an egg that is cut can also lead to tangled umbilicus etc.
