Eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As some of you may remember, I was housing 3 male corns together (or so I thought) and the amel motley and anery bred. That's been a little over a months ago and now she's laying EGGS!!!!!!. So far there are 11 and she's still laying! All look fertile so far too! Anyway, nothing is going to come out of the eggs (unless there are some hidden hets), but this is my first clutch!
Note: ALL of my snakes are housed separately now.

Wasn't exactly a surprize. I walked in the room and saw they were locked, so I knew I was going to have eggs. Yes, I was prepared and yes I'm incubating.
Congrats on your first clutch!

Re: Eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why do you mark your eggs and what did you use to mark them?

So that I know which side is up, so I can make sure I don't turn them. Unlike chicken eggs, the embryo in reptile eggs form at the top of the egg, so if you turn it, you drown the embryo. I used sharpy on these, but I now use pencil.

Old wives tale. 100% pure bunk.
Also, Sharpies have some terrible chemicals in them, and eggs breathe, soaking up that garbage.

Re: Eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A toxic permanate marker that was laid on that thick is very risky. (the eggs soak that up)
If done carefully there is no need to mark eggs at such a small scale.
