Left in a pile.

Some of both. I cut the few that hadn't pipped after 48 hours.
3d:: Were there any dead in egg? If so, were the embryos fully formed or deformed?
None dead.


4:: Resulting ratio of sexes, males.females?
5 males and 11 females, but I'm new to sexing, so that might not be completely accurate.
4a:: Resulting morphs of males.females?
0.1 avalanche, 0.1 snow, 1.2 masque amels, 1.3 amels, 3.4 fires

All babies ate the first time.

0

0

Pretty much all of them were a bit bitey at first, except for two females that were quite sweet. One female continues to be very nasty. All the rest are fine now.

Hard to answer, all of them I guess because they're baby corn snakes.
4h:: Number of males.females with a "chill" personality?
2 females are pretty calm.
