    Yup. As of now, his success rate is 0% on ball python quads surviving.

    Just like everyone else in the whole wide world.

    The guy had a female lay an egg that was so stuffed with snakes that it would have been a first if any of them survived and they didn't. Why do you want to throw something like that in now? The other eggs he cut did fine. People all over the world who have ball pythons have cut the eggs and the hatchlings do fine.

    Those quads had next to nothing of a chance to survive with the egg cut. They couldn't even crawl out. Do you think they would have had even a remote chance of being strong enough to pip that egg if he hadn't cut it? I sure don't. They would have drowned.

    When someone gets something like that and tries to save it despite how hopeless it is, I gotta give him props. I can't think of a single solitary thing he did wrong nor anything else he could have done to try to save those hatchlings. Four ball pythons stuffed into an egg that nature only meant to nourish one and they died and you want to imply that a guy killed them by cutting the egg?
