Spot on there

Eggs have not rolled while in the tub. How critical is that from when they are laid to when they're in the tub? That is, how critical is it to keep them upright from the way they were in the snake tub with momma to their orientation in the egg tub? I just worry that we won't be able to mark the top of each egg before it rolls as we take the female off the eggs...
Tim Bailey did an experiment where he rolled an egg over shorty after being laid and it had no effect on the snake at all the embryo just righted itself and all was good but after the first 24 hours of being laid the embryo is attached and shouldn't be moved..

I haven't put a humidity sensor/guage in the egg tub itself to measure. With the substrateless method, others have said that it's foolproof on the humidity. Are these just getting too wet?
It's possible..but not likely..

Maybe the lower right egg is just infertile...I don't know. What's the difference between an infertile egg and a slug?
and infertile egg is a perfectly formed egg that lacks an embryo. A slug is a follical that never was meant to be an egg..typically they are smaller darker and will never do anything but rot..
