    Best Incubation Method/Equipment

    Here's a question for some of the more experienced people and "home" breeders.....

    I've currently paired 2 normal bps, for which I've seen at least 5-6 good "locks" over the past couple of months. I am going to start setting up whatever it is I'll need for incubation.

    The room temp in the room with the snakes is pretty stable, and stays around 77-78. I was planning on buying a Hovabator, but if there's any other options available, let me know.

    I also have a trio of leopard geckoes, both females have mated with the male several times. I understand that you incubate ball pythons eggs around 85 degrees? That would be fine for leopard gecko eggs, but I just wanted to make sure I could incubate the two types of eggs in the same incubator should they happen to show up in the same period of time.

    about incubating the leo eggs: i incubate mine up in a shoebox size rubbermaid and run a strip of flexwatt down the bottom center of the containter. i plug the flexwatt into a thermostat and i'm good to go. just an option if you don't want to or can't use your other incubator.

    Make your own...

    I have some instructions on my Articles page. Enjoy!

    By the way, 85 is too low for BP eggs. You want to be at 88-90.
