I opened the incubator, then the eggbox, to check the status of a hatching clutch...I had 1 unslit egg, 1 pipped egg, 3 empty eggs, 2 babies huddled in the corner of the box. Hmmm, something doesn't add up - better check again. Same numbers, and, yes, the empty eggs are really empty. A missing baby? Already? No big surprise that it was able to escape the eggbox - it is a 6qt sterilite box, and the tops just aren't secure enough to contain small snakes...AND it has decent sized ventilation holes.
Let's take a closer look in here, see what I find...

wow - this is an adventurous bunch. I'm getting ready for work, but decided I should take a look to make sure the little wanderer wasn't getting into trouble. I opened the egg box to find........one nervous pipper, and one unslit egg (I removed the empty eggs earlier). No babies to be seen. I start pulling water bottles, and found 2 huddling at the one edge...but no sign of the last one. That one was hiding, buried under the vermiculite. Enough of that nonsense - those three are set up in their individual containers and secured.
