Bryan, you said keep an eye on dimpling and that this is normal at the last week of incubation but today is the 57th day in the incubator and there is no sign of dimpling. Should I be worried?

Hows the temps been? Dont get too excited ! Are you sure on your dates? I would candle one and look for movement . Sometimes when temps are a bit lower than your thermometer is reading it can take longer . Do you have the temp probe in the egg container?

The temp has stayed steady at 89 deg. the temp probe is under the egg container. I'll candle one and look for any movement, I have candled the eggs and seen lots of red veins. I have the days # on the calender.

62 days now and still no babies!!! I pulled out two of my last five hairs on my head! LOL... Their still moving in the eggs. Maybe tomorrow, I'm thinking of opening a little flap to look in one. Do you think it's a good or bad idea?

OK, at 64 days I could not take it any more. I cut them open and their are five little snakes all alive and moving. They have yet to stick their heads out to start breathing air but it shouldn't be long now. Trust me it was intense and nerve wrecking to do this for the first time but hopefully it was the right thing to do. I'll post pics soon.
