i'm sorry, a little info on myself. I am an amateur field herpetologist, i spend most of my time out studying herps of all kinds. i report all data to the state, and a few other orgs. i am into conserving herps, and not killing them.

a lady that knows me and my passions said she eggs near her shed that she beleived to be snakes. I have previously relocated snakes for her as she will kill them if i do not. so she allowed me to collect the eggs before she threw them all out. i put them in a plastic container, with the dirt from their nest, as to keep it similar. they are currently residing in my shed with a towel over the container to keep out light when the doors are open. i tried to keep it as close as possible to their natural nest. My plan is then to get them started on food and release them to another location.

milks, garter, racers, are all common here, with garters ruled out automatically. black rats could be there, as could hognoses. i just guessed milk as thats what i normally find, and because of the location.

two night ago an egg pipped. no slit, just a small hole with yoke coming out. then yesterday 6 more did. all just small holes.

any idea?
