    Need your opinion.
    I am drawing out some new plans for an incubator. I've decided to go on an incubator room, rather than building an incubator. I want to get rid of this refrigerator incubator. I want your opinions on some things such as heating, air circulation, insulation and shelving. Any suggestions are welcomed! I'm all ears :D

    It's a 9' x 12' room. I'm going to be putting better insulation in it as well as using linoleum for the flooring. It is a good sized room lol. I just want the extra room as I could expect somewhere around 9-10 clutches of eggs from my Giants when I breed them (Afrocks, Burms, etc). My giants are still very young, but I feel itd be best to start on this as soon as I can, so it is ready when I need it rather than needing it and not having it.

    I need it to be large. I have 11 female giant Pythons, all with the possibility of them laying 50+ large eggs, as well as some smaller species of Python I keep...haha I need some room :P


    I'll definitely post pictures once I get it done though:D

    Ed gave me some good advice. I haven't been able to find many others that can :(

    Re: Need your opinion.
    Just a thought, do you realy want to put all your eggs in one basket???

    I would have thought it may be better to have a number of incubators some distance from each other to lessen problems of deceases or bacteria transfer between clutches.

    Maintaining temps, circulation and backup systems are going to be expensive.

    I am no expert on the subject, as stated, just a thought.
