I think the shriveling is caused by too much humidity... or too little. D: I hope someone can come in and correct me on that.
 
that makes sence. we left town and came back the next day and there was 2 eggs in her viv and im guessing that was the oldest one.

thanks

For some reason, all of my snake eggs stink this clutch. I am grossed out by the stench, but they are veined and healthy just like yours. I think this may be one of thee downsides that we just deal with. Good luck!
 
They look deydrated. I would bury them about 1/2 to 3/4 in the substrate, leaving the tops exposed (air exchange) and be careful you dont turn them. Up the humidity and dampen the paper towel(get it wet and ring it out well). A week or so of that you should see some improvements to the dehydrated ones unless they are too far gone.

I dont know what the smell is. I havent encountered that one. If it looks good keep it as Vickichiatea mentioned worse eggs have hatched.
