I am a vet tech at an animal hospital and a gentleman picking up his dog brought us an egg hoping we could identify it. X-raying the egg showed nothing. the dr said the egg was way to cold and it was unlikely that the animal was salvagable so the owner gave us permission to open the egg. so i took the liberty of opening the egg very carefully and it was a snake!!!!! the owner was very curious as to what type of snake it is and none of us had a clue so i figured id ask you guys. i imagine its way to early to tell but id love to hear a guess. he said hes seen timber rattlers on his property before so who knows. what do you guys think????
