Black ratsnakes are not live bearing. The eggs you found are proof of this. There's no telling how the eggs will do. Depends on when the mother was hit and when you found them. If you don't have them in this already, put them in course vermiculite. Moist but not soaked. You have them at the right temp. Keep the eggs in the same position as to not turn them over...if you decide to move them around. Within about a week or so, you should be able to tell if they are good or not. They should stay white and fully round. There's alot more info on this site if you look but I hope I helped a bit. Good luck and let us know how they do. I'm glad you did what you did!
