    Dimpling too much too fast help

    On about day 35 my ball python eggs dimpled way too much. it is now day 45 but they still look about the same. Im trying my best to keep them moist but im worried something might go wrong. Can someone tell me what i might expect. Will the eggs be okay if they are more dimpled than usual especially on day 35?

    Your substrate doesn't look very wet, and the analog thermometer/hygrometers are useless. You need to pick up an accurite temp/hygrometer from Walmart to get accurate readings. I have used the reptibator and the hygrometer and thermometer don't work that well. How did you determine the water to substrate ratio? I would recommend going substrateless (search this forum for detailed explanation).

    Put a wrung-out damp paper towel over them, and see if that helps.
