The eggs will start dimpling naturally a few weeks before they're due to hatch.

Re: eggs almost ready
I decided to cut one egg open just to check and its doing fine I will post a video of it when I get off work. The baby was very responsive and looks pretty big IMO. I will let the other babies pip on there own
In the future it would be wise to take the advice you get on this board. Since you are new to this here are a couple tips.
1. Always spotlight the egg to see where the veins are so you can avoid them when cutting.
2. Pinch egg before you cut to make sure you dont cut the snake.
3. Cut in a V shape to make a closing flap. That away you get to see what it is and you can close the flap back down so the egg stays sealed better. Some times when totally exposed like yours they can begin to mold. (Experienced it)
Furthermore congrats on your new baby ball pythons! And good luck on the others.

All the eggs hatched and are doing fine except for 1 which was tangled in the cord attaching it to the till and severed it for the most part. This one came out to only be about 35g. The rest are fat and healthy and are between 65 and the biggest us 87g. Here's a few pics and will have more up in the bp pictures forumhttp://tapatalk.com/mu/c6e4c138-081b-bed2.jpg

Congrats!
I'm on day 51 and waiting anxiously for my first clutch to start pipping. If they have not pipped by this Saturday (day 55) I will cut them.
Good luck with your new babies!
