Of course, I'm already aware that it has to be fertile and that quail eggs are the best because of their size. My only concern is how long can you store a fertile egg for? I've found a pack of 8 fertilized, however I don't want to fed him 8 for a month straight as it wont be very healthy for him, I want to offer a mix of mice and rats too, but I don't want the eggs to go bad.
Not to be rude Hannibalcanibal, but I'm aware that they can eat eggs, and that it has to be fertile. I'm not talking about feeding him a normal chicken egg from Walmart. This whole post revolves around storing fertile quail eggs, I have plenty of reptile experience and not all of my knowledge comes from the internet, I have friends who offer quail eggs to their Corns, but they have enough snakes to use a whole batch and they don't have to store the eggs. My original question was how can I go about storing them, and for how long. Spitting out the shell is normal because it's too difficult to digest, they'll just consume the insides, and cleanup has to be done right away.
I understand the snake deciding to become a picky eater, but this is not something I'm going to do every week, more like a treat every couple of months, just for variety.
