What am I trying to hatch? 🤔

[MissSkittles]

So, the fates have spoken and some random reptile eggs have found their way to me. (They were dug up by a landscaper who had no idea what to do with them other than offer them to me) No idea how they were positioned, how they were turned once moved or even if the big eggs and little eggs were in the same area or nest. Google told me that turning reptile eggs doesn’t always kill the animals and that the correct orientation is baby on the top side. Candling showed itty bitty lizards in the 2 big eggs and very tiny dark spots in the small eggs, so I marked them with babies and dark spots on top. (Hope it’s right). One of the big eggs is starting to window a bit. I placed them in scantly moistened sphagnum moss and have them in deli cups with 1-2 tiny vent holes and keeping at around 78-80F with a che. Pics below.
Honestly I’ve no idea if what I’m doing is right or wrong, so accepting all feedback. @kinyonga what do you think?
Anyone want to take a random guess at what these could be? Just hoping that they aren’t anything like coral snakes. Yikes! They were found in Rockledge Florida. I had just seen what I believe was a Peter’s rock agama earlier in the day at the Rockledge Lowe’s. Of course with all of the many invasive reptiles, the eggs could be anything. I don’t think they are small enough to be from the little anoles that are everywhere. Whatever they are, if they do somehow beat the odds and hatch, they’ll be given a good meal or two and sent on their wild ways.

My guess would be Agama eggs, they are pretty prolific breeders. But being in Florida it could be anything lol!

I have absolutely no idea what could be inside of those eggs, but I'm sure they will be adorable!
there are a whole bunch of house geckos in my storm shelter and when I go to clean it out, I sometimes find eggs on the stairs. so tiny!

Sorry but I have no idea what they would be at the moment. I’m going to give it some thought!

Even if it turns out to be coral snakes, they deserve to live too I think!
Coral snakes lay eggs in summer and they don’t take long to hatch…so hopefully that’s not what the eggs are anyway.

Gus’s you’ll just have to hatch them and see!

If these unfortunate little eggs manage to survive being dug up, moved and my well intentioned but ignorant/inexperienced incubation attempt and hatch, I’ll be a bit thrilled, regardless of what they are. I am far too soft to deny any creature of its life or chance for it. So, everyone keep your fingers and toes crossed and maybe say a little prayer for these mystery eggs.

 

[MissSkittles]

Well, sadly the larger two eggs have shriveled up and are obviously not viable. RIP unborn mystery lizards. The others look perfect and I’m thinking they must have been freshly laid, so maybe there’s hope for them.

Don’t throw them away just yet. Chameleon eggs shrivel up and look like they are going bad before they hatch. Other lizard eggs might do the same.

I haven’t tossed them, but I did move them away from the heat. I haven’t much hope for them, but it harms nothing to wait longer.
