Double Clutch!

[joepythons]

Argh! I've had so many different people telling me so many different things. My friend said that he usually does his incubating at around 83-84. Some of the other forums for Corns have ranged anywhere from 80 to 86. I was doing mine at about 82...since it seemed a good inbetween number. I even had one guy tell me that he incubates at around 86. I was like: Holy cow, those little snakies had to be sweating their tails off.

Is 83 to 84 really too high? My friend breeds his Corns every year and has never had problems with kinks and stuff. But I don't want to compromise my two good eggs.

Hmm well i am just sharing my experiance and the temps i incubated at .

Fluctuation is the killer. Keep the temps steady throughout the incubation.

I feel its better to be on the lower end of the spectrum with temperatures, especially for incubating. They can handle a wide range of temps, but once you get to a certain threshold on the upper end, it can spell disaster.

I incubate mine at room temp in the top of a closet. Temp is 76-78º (when they're first laid in April/May, its cooler; now that its August room temp is about 78-79), so it doesn't really fluctuate, but just slowly increases a few degrees over the course of a couple of months. 82º is good, but I personally wouldn't go any higher than that.

Excuse my ignorance, but what comes out of a snow to a abbotts okeettee morph? Sounds like it could be interesting.

Just a little update on my first clutch. My two good eggs still have not yet hatched. I've been checking on them a couple of times a day, keeping them moist (but not overly so) and waiting for the telltale signs of pipping. I still feel like a dolt for having incubated 5 slugs....but honest to goodness, they really looked like viable eggs when they were first laid.

Anyway, I am keeping the camera handy and will get some pics of the pipping when it finally happens, provided they pip during the daylight hours and not while I'm asleep. I'll keep everyone posted!
