Are there pygmy rattlesnakes in Indiana?
There are NO rattlesnakes in Indiana, huh? Obviously, this person is not well researched or educated in the field of herpetology. YES, Indiana does have rattlesnakes in the Southern third of the state,(including Brown County) and IN THE EXTREME NORTHWEST OF THE STATE, BOTH (CROTALUS HORRIDUS , a.k.a. the Timber or Canebrake rattlesnake, and( Sistrurus Catanatus), the Massassauga Rattler for the northern part of IN. I personally have seen and dispatched more than one Timber Rattler in my own in my yard in Kentucky in the last 2 years,(and saw a 4 foot one in captivity in the science and nature center in Brown county, IN) and the one in my yard was almost 5 feet long.(yes, Fangs, buttons plus rattles, the whole nine yards. They are rather abundant, actually, along with copperheads, and if you travel to southwestern KY to the land between the lakes, you will also encounter (Sistrurs miliarus), the Pygmy rattler as well as (Agkistrodon Piscivorous), the Water Moccassin, A.K.A. the Cottonmouth. My suggestion is, get some experience time in the field, and study the range maps in field guides before you open that uneducated manure valve below your nose, and have someone else following your science of ignorance.

What advantage is their in having eggs with a leather shell?
the advantage of having a leather shell:
-protects the egg
-Some leathery eggs also have calcium carbonate but much more protein than the average bird egg. This protein is typically keratin, which is the same type of protein that makes up human hair and fingernails.
-Leathery eggshells do not necessarily have calcium carbonate. Some types of eggshells have little or no calcium in them at all, and instead are composed primarily of proteins. They may have other substances, such as lipids or some other mineral, as part of their makeup to ensure a solid, flexible shell.
-Tough, leathery eggs are generally very similar to hard eggs in structure, but the shell has some differences in its composition. Specifically, hard-shelled bird eggs tend to be a mix of calcium carbonate and protein. The protein helps make the shell smooth and holds it together, while the calcium carbonate gives it its hardness.

Exodus chapter 7 describes how the Egyptian magicians also had rods that turned into snakes, as did Moses' brother AAron, whose snake swallowed up the other serpents.
