    Natural Incubation
    I was wondering if any one knew what the time frame is for eggs hatching if they are incubated naturally? I know that most people say 50-60 days if you incubate them at a certain temperature but I have seen very little or any discussion about the natural process. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Takes about another few days.

    I think mine was around 65 days? I'll check my records.

    I was curious about this myself. Was wondering what kind of luck folks around here have had with natural incubation.

    Seems like it would be the way to do things...happens in nature all the time. I think it depends on what you are hatching.
    I would not try it with, say a clutch of lavender albinos, but I'm sure it would be interesting to see happen.
    Temps and humidity control would be a bit harder to maintain.

    My incubated clutches usually take 57-58 days, the few clutches that mom incubated were 63 days till they started hatching.
