Well we broke down and cut one. It's only day 48... but we could not wait any longer. Yes, I know that we're naughty. We could not believe how big they are! From candling it looks like the snake only fills half the egg, but this one is actually huge! http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...g/IMG_2375.jpg http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...g/IMG_2372.jpg The plan is to wait and see if they start pipping before day 55 before we cut any others. We'll see :P
Check out this one's umbilical. I thought it was pretty cool. http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...Mating/013.jpg http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...Mating/018.jpg And I think that is mold starting to grow? Is there anything I should be doing about that? I think the babies are only a day or two from coming out.
Big congrats to you! I am sure it is very exciting seeing as this is your first clutch! I know I would be super excited too!
I generally handle mold on any of my eggs by using a qtip and scraping it off gently, it seems to help a lot and so far has been very successful.
Holy FAT babies! http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...Mating/007.jpg
