Egg hatch time!
Hi guys, one for the breeders! I have eggs now on day 61. They've been incubated at the cooler end of the spectrum, 86 degrees or so. Whats the longest anyones had eggs go, and how long should I expect to wait at these temps?
Thanks guys.

Re: Egg hatch time!

Re: Egg hatch time!
yea I think Ill do that next year would I have any issues if I increased temps now to 89 so they remaining two clutches in the viv will hatch earlier?

Suddenly changing/spiking temps can cause kinking, so if you bump them up IIRC you have to do it slowly, like 0.5 degree per day.
I did mine at 85.5*F - by the time I realized there was the issue I didn't want to mess with things - and three pipped on their own on day 67. At that point I cut the other six. All hatched out fine.
So... patience.

Re: Egg hatch time!
to avoid the risk i think ill just keep them as is. I dont mind waiting a few more weeks for healthy babies. Thanks for the info.
