Cooking times for a soft boiled egg (and getting it just right) depend on a several factors: (i) the storage temperature of the eggs, (ii) the size of the eggs and (iii) [believe it or not] your elevation above sea level. However the temperature of the egg in the first place matters the most. As a general rule, the cooking time for the "perfect soft boiled" (soft runny yoke and firm white) is 5 to 6 minutes. To get around the vagaries, try the following: 1. Piece the larger end of the eggs with a skewer (only just breaking through the shell). This will stop the egg-shell cracking while cooking. 2. Place the eggs in a saucepan of water ensuring the eggs are covered with water. 3. Over a medium heat, gently bring the water to boiling point - watching closely for the first signs that the water in boiling (bubbles rising more or less evenly throughout the water). 4. Maintain at boiling for 3 to 4 minutes. 5. Remove eggs from water and allow one minute to rest before serving.

Add the whole egg, uncracked to boiling water. Boil for only two minutes, then remove. Put in egg cup or in a bowl, and crack just the top part off. You can eat it out of the shell or pour it out over toast.

Snake eggs have flexible, leathery shells instead of hard ones like bird eggs. This allows the eggs to be more pliable and conform to the shape of the nest, making them easier to lay in tight spaces.
