My eggs are hatching but the last few have been in thier eggs for over 24 hours since they broke open i was wondering can i help them get out or should i leave them and hope fro the best?

Greetings, and congratulations on your hatchlings. We prefer to leave them alone as they lay in the egg. We had some that lay in the egg for 4 days before crawling out on their own. They are most likely digesting their egg sack.

ok thanks i'll wait it out then .One thing though 2 hatched like almost a week ago now is it normal for such a time between hatchings they are all mthe same batch.

Our clutches have mostly all hatched out over time, some clutches took a few weeks to complete hatching. I think this is normal for incubated eggs in captivity. It is also desirable, because then your chams are hatching out when they are each individually ready. When the eggs are laid too close together, the chams tend to hatch out all at one time which is not desirable as some may not be quite ready yet.

Howdy,

Reminds me of the clutch of 11 panthers that I was hatching for someone else. They hatched somewhat evenly from day 270 to day 376 .

Look at those long toenails (Nighttime photo):
