Should I just scrap this idea and go w/ the hovabator, or is this worth thinkig about? The room temps in our house are never below 75 degrees in the snake room.
I would think you would lose your temp needed to hatch the eggs thru the plastic of the tub.Or you would have to use flexwatt at the top and under the tub.If its the later choice i would just get a hovabator lol.My reason is simple to much work and stress to keep the eggs properly heated in order to hatch,plus i am lazy lol
