Irian jaya hatching question

[Jezabel]

Finaly, the baby are comming out of the eggs. I'm sooooooooo exited :D :D :D It's my first time seen snakes eggs hatch! I'll post pics later as I'm not home now.

I'm wondering, the first one was completly out of the egg when my friend saw the started to hatch. But the egg that he came out from is still quite full. Is it normal? I thought they where suposed to absorb the inside before to come out?

Thanks for the help!

Only one out, and one with the head out. Usually, about how long till all the eggs hatch?

Awesome! :D

They take anywhere from 8 hours to 4 days to all hatch out. Mine usually take 36 hours until the whole batch is out and exploring.

Thanks everyone! I'll get pics later of all de babies. Since my friend has the female and I had the male, he incubate the eggs. So far no bites, they are really calm, I thought they where a bit nippy right out of the eggs. Thanks for the tricks Mardy. Anyway, I don't have anywhere to buy mice, the person who breed my rat keep mostly rat so his mice a twice the price of the rat for a same size prey.
