Pastel Butter x Spider (Maternal Incubation)

[meowmeowkazoo]

Whether you made it to the end or not this thread was amazing! Watching someone document maternal incubation was awesome and I'm sure it'll open a lot of people's eyes as to whether they want to try it or not. Good luck with the eggs I speak for everyone that has been following this thread when I say we wish the you the best and hope to see some little hatchlings coming soon

Thank you, that means a lot. I have had some criticism along the way (i.e. why don't you just spend the money and get a good incubator), but I have also had far more support than I expected, which was wonderful.

If my other herpstat arrives in time, I will be trying maternal incubation with my leopard clutch in a new rack system. If not, I plan on resuming my exploration of maternal incubation next year. I feel confident that I (and anyone else) can succeed at maternal incubation when we have the right tools and information. Now that I better understand the humidity I'm dealing with here in Utah, I can prepare for it and avoid having to disturb the nest and the mother during incubation.

I truly hope that this won't discourage people from trying maternal incubation on their own. It's not difficult if you're prepared, it's a wonderful experience, and it's an amazing insight into these animals we own.
