Jungle Eggs arrived today!

Came home to 12 fertile jungle eggs tonight.

Total clutch weight 540grams (average 45grams each)

Eggs were laid 20 days after her prelay shed, which was 20 days after ovulation.

Now the next part of the waiting games begin.

Wow those eggs are huge compared to the size of snake! Admittedly I've never seen jungle eggs. Do they have a hard time squeezing them out?
