    Flukers and a heat gun telling me the inside of my incubator is 90 degrees...but it does not feel warm to the touch.Do your frige incubators feel warm when you open the door and also to the touch?
    Thanks!Mike.

    And how hot is your body? Body temp is 98.6 degrees F, so 90 degrees isnt going to feel warm at all.

    Thanks.Mike.

    Sorry if that post seemed harsh, wasnt meant to be at all. It should be ambiently warm, but to the touch it should feel luke-warm, not cold, but not really warm either.

    exactly what i was going to say. if it were 98.6 degrees you would feel nothing. anything over 98.6 degrees and you would start to feel warmth. anythong under 98.6 degrees and you would feel cool...

    This is how a lot of new snake keepers end of with snakes with burns... they assume there is no way a warm side can be 90 degrees unless the can feel the warmth.

    I trust my tub temps.I think I am nervous about my first clutch so I am second thinking every thing.two digital flukers and a heat gun can't be wrong.Thanks to you all for your advice.
