Are They Healthy?

She laid her eggs 2 days ago but I dont think they look healthy how do I know if they are not going to make it? How soon should she eat after laying her eggs?

They look ok but make sure you have high humidity for them
I usually wipe down my females with a damp cloth to get rid of the egg smell and then offer a small meal

My fiance built an incubator and I'm not sure what we can do to improve it to keep the temp lower And the humidity higher any suggestions

Temp should remain the same 31.5 is optimum for Carpet eggs imo
Humidity should be 80%

What do you keep the eggs in? The mom is a ball python anD dad is a pastel

I usually incubate my eggs in a tub on a 50/50 mix of vermiculite and water which helps keep the humidity up

Incubator is to control temp not humidity.
Humidity is controlled through the tub/box and the mixture of medium and water inside it.
