My buddy has one up at his pet store. He has hatched out some lep geckos with it but never tried it for snakes. It isn't very big so I would think you could only get one clutch in there, possibly 2.
They need to make a couple different sizes of these!

The reptibator was mainly targeted at gecko eggs, and smaller python to colubrid eggs.
Hit up craigslist and look for broken Dorm fridges and or full upright ones. Add in flexwatt 1-4 80mm fans tied into thermostat and your all set.

Those small incubators are not very good for BP eggs at all. I bought it, was too small for even one 6 qt shoebox. Even in that small space the temps were not even, which I believe is due to a lack of air circulation.
I found a broken Red Bull fridge on craigslist and turned it into a incubator. I Couldn't be happier with it. I would definitely recommend converting an old fridge for your BP incubator. Personally I thought it was a fun project.http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...ull-Incubator!

Re: good incubator???
Those are mostly for geckos, small eggs. Check Nature's Spirit- http://www.nsreptiles.com/ they make a decent one if you don't want to make one ( I didn't know that they are not making them right now). But to build one, you can use a cooler! A lot cheaper and bigger.
