Chalk it up to experience. If they are going to hatch just leave them and take good notes. If they hatch or not you have a good reference. Any damage that might have happen has probably already happen. Taking them out of the ground now will probably do more harm than good if they are still alive.

: Ok, guys, I am asking for your advice here. My female redfoot has laid 4 batches of eggs in the last three months. All of which are incubating except for the 2nd batch. They have been in the
ground since October. We are in Key West, so it is pretty warm, but have had an unusually cool winter, averaging 50 at night for about 5 weeks. Should I pull up the eggs and incubate or since they have been in the ground for so long, would that mess them up? Thanks to you in advance.
