I bet you break down and cut tomorrow! Just call me the enabler! :cool:

Boy I wish I was dying to see eggs hatch...Im still suffering waiting to start the breeding season. I could always be uber-impatient and fake breeding conditions NOW but my female laid eggs for her previous owner in April and I just barely got her to eat again on Saturday.

*Edit*
I forgot I was waiting on HER eggs to hatch. Previous owner's incubating em for me right now. I don't have the incubator at home though so I guess it helps not seeing them. Texted her just now, scheduled for July 4th-ish.

i will post a pic of the eggs tonight and see if you think i should go for it tomorrow or wait. thanks.

I remove the press n seal on day 45 as well. After that I'm doing quick daily air exchanges with the eggs. I cut around day 52 and also lightly mist the eggs once cut (keep a small mister bottle right in the incubator to keep that water nice and warm). Can you tell Rabernet and I both listen to what Kara tells us. :D

Really, it's going to be up to you! I cut on Day 52, because there's no way I can wait until Day 54.

these are a few pics of them as of day 51. have you ever lost any from cutting on day 52 or all i have to do is mist them to keep the yolk moist. thanks for your help.

I personally haven't lost any from cutting day 52, but I also don't want to say nothing bad would happen - things happen with ball pythons, no matter how careful you are. If you'd rather wait - there's nothing wrong with that either!

do them eggs look like they are where they should be at this point. thanks
