    I am incubating them at room temp but I think I might setup a cooler tomorrow. I just used a temp gun in the egg container and it read 77. I want to drop it down to 73-75, but my apartment might be too warm to accomplish this. I can't wait to see the babies and post pictures of them.

    I'm sorry I beat you to eggs. I wasn't really expecting to pick up a freebe gravid female, but I'm not going to complain. I always though my first eggs would be ball python eggs.

    Haha!

    I know what you mean. I thought my BP girls would have laid a long time ago. I'm glad I'm not the only one that is having a late season, seems like the same as last year with a lot of people. I'll be happy if I just hatch out at least one healthy normal male out of my 5 breeding girls. Anything on top of that will be a big plus! We will see what happens...

    If you can, try to get them down in temps a bit. It has been proven that the lower temps you mentioned make for stronger healthier babies with larger crests. I know they were kind of a surprise so no rush. I'll be waiting for those little babies to pop their heads out!!! I'm super excited for you,...and jealous.
