    60 Days!!!
    So tomorrow will be day 60. I have never had a clutch go this long. What do you guys think, should I wait it out or cut. My temps were 89.1. Humidity 99%. Had a secondary probe in the egg box that read 88-89 degrees. I candled a few days ago. Red veins all around. I have a total of 5 eggs. So frustrating.

    Take out an egg and squeeze it around in your hand gently. If you feel like the egg is pretty stuffed with snake then i would cut. At this point they should be so well developed that cutting wont harm anything at all. Let us know what you do!

    I saw pattern in one. Either Lesser or Normal. Most of the eggs are deflated. Two of the 5 are quite oval still.

    this.

    A lot of people cut their eggs at day 55 as you are on day 59/60 there is no reason why you couldn't/shouldn't.

    It might even save a baby if you do cut!

    Of course I wake up this morning with a head poking out of one of the eggs. I ended up cutting the rest. Not one BEL. Shocked. Pairing was Lesser x Mojave het Hypo. Thanks for the advice guys.

    Well I cut right before I left for work. I'll take some when they are out. Don't want to disturb them while they're still absorbing yolk.

    Here's what I got so far. There's a normal still in the egg.

    2 Mojo's
    1 Lesser
    1 Normal

    All appear to be males. Can't believe I didn't get one BEL. So frustrating. I'll take more pics post shed.

    Looks like you did get a couple decent Mojos and a stunner of a Lesser though.
