clumped eggs

Mice! They taste so nice!
How do people deal with clumped clutches as they hatch? Annie and Pearl's eggs are mostly buried in damp vermiculite, so I won't know if the lower eggs are pipping.
So do you usually just take out any hatchlings as and when they emerge, and do you uncover the eggs in a clump at all?

Hey J9, just from my experience here, I've found it's usually one of the top eggs that pip first, when they are in a clump like that. Once I see the first pip, I uncover the rest of the eggs, so I can at least see the top portion of each one and just leave them sitting on the bed of vermiculite. A make-up/cosmetics brush comes in very handy for getting in the crevices ;)

Those eggs look great and I can't wait to see what's hiding inside :D

Hope that helps a little :)
