That was it, my curiosity! Oops! I'd bred & raised snakes before, so I knew what good eggs look like, I just couldn't believe there were so many!? I thought they'd all go bad, & when they didn't, it was too late. They're cool snakes, for sure, but I'm not wanting so many pets any more- I've been at this for a long time. Thanks for admitting that you'd have been curious too, lol. I don't feel so bad now. Good luck with Ms. PITA.
