When to pip?
So tonight I'm at day 56 for 7 eggs, none have hatched yet. I understand BP eggs will go at about 52-60 days. When if at all do you all pip? All eggs are still good looking. They all are dimpling in with near 100% humidity. I'm using the no substrate method. I mostly deal with Emerald Tree Boas so I'm not used to dealing with eggs. I wanted to get practice on BP eggs before I attempt to breed my GTPs.

Re: When to pip?
What is your incubation temp? As long as it isn't crazy low you could pip anytime you feel like it, or you can wait for them. Your call.
We pipped everything at Day 52 last year, though this year I have vowed to be more patient (.....right).

I kept the temps at about 88.7 +/- .2 My incubator was build for GTP eggs using a Herpstat basic.

I'm on day 57 with one of my clutches and just waiting it out. The earliest I've ever had them hatch was 53 days and the latest was 67 days. I don't cut my eggs unless I feel it's absolutely necessary. Good luck with yours! Hope they don't keep you waiting too much longer. I know how patience is worn thin in the last weeks of incubation.

Well even though the Sire/Dam was Pastel/Normal, 7 born live. 5 Normals and 2 Pastels. Now comes the fun part, waiting for the shed then feeding trials.
