Buy the Hovabator, scrap the expensive reptile thermostats, and go to Grainge.com and buy yourself a Penn industrial thermostat. You DO NOT need a proportional thermostat to hatch ball pythons. A simple on/off stat will do the job and has for me for over 20 years. I still have the same Penn thermostat I got from Grainger in 1995 and it is still working as well as it did the day I got it.....for around $40. I've hatched everything from Burms to Balls to Chondros with it. If you convert your Hovabator, you can fit about 50-60 ball python eggs in it. Think simple and don't over-think it.lol.
