Yum, I can't wait til these things hatch then! Delicious.

I'm opening that box outside when the time comes. Gawd... that smell already... I wish I could do something about it. If I cut it open and scooped out the insides, then only left the edges that are touching other eggs... would that work? Or would that be just a hassle?
