i have eggs and its about time for them to hatch. 7, of the 31, eggs now have needle sized holes with the yoke coming out, but nothing more. its been almost 2 days since the first egg broke, but the others just broke yesterday. not even 100%, but i beleive they're milk snake eggs, could possibly be hognose, i've never seen either egg before.

anyway, i did cut the first egg open and i see a black "snake" inside i guess. and its still surrounded by the yoke and a few blood vessels. just curious what it could be?

the eggs are slit, just a needle sized hole, poked out, not in. so i guess they're trying to get out. but not slitting? how long will it take? any suggestions?
