Will these eggs make it?

These are the eggs from the post http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...d.php?t=120665

They were laid on roughly May 25th-27th, so rougly 4-6 days ago. I got home on the 28th and found them on dry aspen deflated with a semihard feel. The one on the corner was a roll out, the other 4 she was coiled around.

They all candled good then and today, even the deflated one starting to grow mold strangely is still has thick red veins (Although not as many as the other 4) on the inside when candled.

Based on appearance do you think they might make it? The dark spot on the middle one has me worried, is that normal?

I don't see why not, if they candled well, try a little anifungal powder on the moldy one, make sure the humidity is up, and your temps good. Good luck :)

by the way I love that high contrast albino :)

They should make it, the moldy one looks questionable but the rest should be fine.

The one with the dark spot should be fine. I don't know why there is a dark spot, but the egg is healthy looking.
The only one that is a concern in my eyes is the deflated looking one on the left.
Is that staight perlite?
I use straight vermiculite. Also think alot of people use a 50/50 mixture of the two. Watch your humidity!

I'm using Hatchrite, not sure what they use to make it.
(http://www.hatchrite.com/) first time using it.

If their mother was brooding them (minus the roll out) then I see no reason why they shouldn't make it. They look good. Even the roll out has a chance.

I would add a little bit of water to the corners (i know its Hatchrite) just to see if you can get that deflated one to turn around for ya. Just squirt it in there with a siringe or something making sure not to get any on the eggs themselves.

to me that dark spot looks like a little tiny window...but im no expert.

Just an update. 5 days ago the 4 eggs of the right hatched! The top left was a mom roll out and only made it 2 weeks into incubation.

Considering how de-hydrated these eggs were when I found them I extremely relieved that they all hatched healthy babies.

Once I got them in the incubator I gradually increased the humidity until I got it to 100%. I've got to say I've really got to thank VPI and their awesome book and of course most of all BP.net for all the very helpful info regarding the situation:D

Congrats on the healthy babies! :)

Right on! They look great, congrats.

Congrats on the hatchlings, vpi book has great info in it. bringing the humidity up slowly when low and not panicing and taking a big jump at once with the humidity is very important. good job and again congrats

They look great, and I'm so glad they made it! Congrats! :)

Glad they made it!!! Those pastels are hot!
