It's not cheap to get set up. You're looking at 200$ on a rack. 100$+ on thermostat(s). Incubator you could use a broken frig someone's getting rid of but Ive been on the hunt for one for a year so you may have to buy one for like $700 or so. Not to mention food, bedding, tubs, hides (optional, my rack is dark in the back), water bowls, freezer for rodents, etc. It pays back depending on how long or the breeding stock you have. Good luck![]()
