    There are pros and cons to cutting eggs. The purpose of cutting the eggs is to prevent the case of a ball python not being able to get out on its own (egg tooth not strong enough, etc.). But, cutting eggs introduce the risk of bacteria, etc. etc.

    A lot of people cut eggs simply for the purpose of knowing if they got a morph.

    I cut the eggs because it was day 69 and I started to worry.

    Most people here will advice to wait until the first snake pips then cut the rest.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
