She won't be able to incubate like that, the tub is in her way. She needs to be able to wrap the eggs completely or else they are just going to die. I would say remove that tub and put the 2 separate eggs in an incubator. If she does not wrap all the eggs completely, remove them and put all in the i...

Just make sure those holes stay closed, I have seen it many times where a snake gets bigger and then can't fit through the holes any more and then gets stuck half way through, most of the time it does not work out too well for the snake.

Looks like you had a great time, some nice finds.
