Alterna eggs...

Apples and oranges, Brett. Knoblochi eggs are longer than alterna eggs. Like Pyro's, those tri-colors lay surprising large eggs for the girth of the snake.

My alterna eggs aren't huge by any means, but it's not so much size as mass. It's a weight thing. Even oddly colored eggs hatch sometimes. If you see blood vessels, they're good to go. Incubate them anyway, if they're bad, you'll know soon enough.

Good luck, and congrats!
Carl
