Some people incubate at higher and lower temps, so I do not think that a degree or two from the top to the bottom of the incubator would make a difference.

    BTW, grats on the eggs!!

    Hope this helps.

    I've found that fans don't just keep the temperature even from top to bottom, but also stir the air so you don't get hot spots sitting around the heat tape. I'd always recommend using fans in an incubator.

    I found this pic that I took last summer.
    The female on the left weighs 1500 grams and the one on the right is the monster female that gave me the eggs yesterday

    This is only my second year breeding snakes so I dont have that much experience. But post a question that you may have in the forum I think that there is tons of people that gladly help you with some advice.

    the little snake only 1500 grams oh_________ I am going going to need larger tubs in the future! I thought the 1600 gram female I watching was huge. I am going to need to redesign the rack cages design a lot more than I though.

    Congrats on the eggs. I got a het pied pair but I don't know if anything gonig to happen this year ( got thei ncubator ready )but if nothing by mid april i'll know then I know she still eating like she normally does so I say she not ..
