    The first time I've had the opportunity to cut and paste a response :)
    Me, nope. I love seeing this too much to cut! If you wait a few days' I'm sure they'll pip.

    This is a beautiful picture. Thanks for sharing!

    As for to cut or not to cut, I would wait. I plan on not cutting at all. There are very few true surprises in life...this just happens to be one of them.

    I cut my first clutch and I felt like I let myself down because I wanted to wait so I waited for my second clutch to pip on their own and it was so cool. I vote wait it's totally worth it!

    i voted "no" . last week my first clutch ever pipped after 60 long days, but when i seen that little face poking out it was like i was 5 year old kid again on Christmas morning.

    I say wait too. I have had many many clutches, and have never cut an egg....nor lost a baby because of it. Nature does just fine.

    We generally pip after at least one or two pip on their own. We have waited in the past, but definitely a personal decision each breeder must face. Good luck!

    He must have heard your threat to cut and thought better of it. Now stand next to the bator and talk loudly about what will happen if they don't come out.:D

    I haven't bred yet but I'd wait til day 60 to cut, unless there has been a snake that pipped before it, say day 55, then I'd cut the rest then
