    Incubating Eggs

    Hi Everyone,

    I was wondering if when you incubate ball python eggs the sex can be determined by the temperature of the incubation? Or is it just completely random?

    Thank you,
    Kevin

    I know alligator or croc breeders can do that at a certain point. Pretty neat!
