EGGS!

SOMEONE HELP PLEASE!

I went in to clean out my female corns cage and found 14 eggs and 5 slugs! I don't even know how long they've been in they're! They were burried underneather her plants! Didn't even know if she was gravid! I know who the father would be, but I didn't think he had any successful breedings with her! I don't know what to do! I pulled them, tossed the slugs. But they're hard and dry. Are they salvagable???

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........

I'm sorry...

If they are hard and dry, then they may not be salvagable. I would put them in a container with some moist moss (get it wet, then squeeze out as much water as possible). Here are a couple of threads which may help:

try anyway!!!

even if they arent able to save, its atleast worth a try. put them in some damp,not wet spagnum moss,or vermiculite. keep them at about 80-82degrees. as is said in the cornsnake manual,sometimes even the most shriveled up dehydrated eggs may surprise you. also with really dehydrated eggs, you can use incubator temp water and a eye dropper to put a few small drop directly on the "dents".i hope this info helps, i to am a first time breeder,this helped my dehydrated eggs return to normal
please keep us posted

You have any idea how guilty I feel about this?! I feel HORRIBLE! I made a temporary incubater out of a fish tank, and until I can get to the store tomorrow, I'm useing moist paper towels for "bedding." I feel so hopeless...
