Egg Incubation Box Set Up

[GrafftiTagZink]

DO NOT use sand!!!!! it will dri eggs and cause compaction . if ur even lucky to get one hatching it won't live long.

[imrich8itch]

I'm guessing that's your reptile room or something? I was wondering what temperature you keep that room at. Thanks

[davbellisario7]

[maculatum38]

@davbellisario7

What do you base your info on? I have hatched out over 100 eggs with this ratio and it has always yielded great results.

[missfirstaid]

hi can you use it for chicken eggs because im useing a box ?

[Ali798521]

Can you use sand

[maculatum38]

@Ali798521

Never used sand but I would say no.

[pythonking100]

what is pearl lite and were can u get it

[maculatum38]

@pythonking100

You can find it in your local garden center. It is mixed in to soil for drainage purposes.

[marweazy1]

Can you do an example video on how to tranfer the egg to the incubation box and then into the actual incubator.? please

[maculatum38]

They are found in the lighting section as they are light difusers. Look on the shelves by the long floresent lighting fixtures. They cost about $12 for a 2' x 4' section. You can cut it to size with a piar if nips.

[WTZReptiles]

Are the egg diffusers called anything different at home depot.

[WTZReptiles]

I am breeding ball pythons this year. Do i need a egg diffuser that you use it this to incubate my eggs. If so where could i get one.

[maculatum38]

@WTZReptiles 

[maculatum38]

It is not mandatory that you use them. I find them to work very well and have great results with them. I buy them at Home Depot.

[reptiledude1111]

@maculatum38 this is gonna sound stupid but can i use sand to put the eggs in during the incubation process the reason im asking is because i i kinda need a fast souloution and all i have is a big bag of sand

[KingofDeath]

@reptiledude1111 No as it won't hold the water like vermiculiteor hatch rite.

[reptileboy46]

well i was wondering what type of incubator you use and if possible make a video of it

[sk8terfolife1234]

[xxkatiekatyxx]

[110879lisa]

hi there watch u video and it looks ok but i have seen so many and i was wondering if u could tell me if i need holes in it and would a heat mat be ok orwould it be to hot and what if it has to much condersation in the box with my gecko eggs will they die and how long do they take to hatch. please get back asap.

[reptidude1]

dude do i need to buy a thermostat to use with a hovibator? or dose it have a built in thermostat?

[MTbasher07]

could that be your actual incubator if you put a heat pad (uth) on the bottom or would that be too hot

[tykwang]

hi i was wondering, what is the ideal temperature should the incubator be at?

[achillesbeast]

an ideal temperature to incubate the eggs would be at 89 F

[ljdsnakeboy]

do eggs need air while in the box

[Didac02]

no it does not need the wholes

[HerpsAndSerps]

Do you put holes in the box? Besides the hole for the probe that is.

[Daequix]

Hey Dino really helpful vid!  Where do you get the diffuser?

Bree

[Didac02]

Home Depot

[scrazz2000]

what are the temperatures for the incubator

[Klovemkr]

could you use sand x water??

i had green iguanas and thats what i used for my females eggs...

[ConejoXIII]

how did u start breeding i need a head start advice in becoming a first time breeder

[sharky97]

could u use paper towel for the defuser?

[billholf]

hey great vids, ive got spider to normal clutch hatching in 3 weeks, keep up the good work but please lose the footwear!

[raziel72]

what do you use for the defuser?

[mtmfreptiles]

how many times do you reaply water.

[jaks41]

wats the size of the tubs

[maculatum38]

I like to keep them above the substrate....to me it just seems to give a better hatch rate. I have had way less bad eggs from mold with this method.

[gaz691]

why do u put the egg on the defuser?

do you think it makes a dirrence

i had a few egs go bad on my last cluch

[maculatum38]

Personaly I would get one. There are a lot of easy ways to make one. If you can't get one for some reason, you could go the rout of maternal incubation and just leave the eggs with mom. You would have to supply the right environment as far as temperature and humidity are conserned. Do a search on maternal incubation and get some knowledge on the subject..

[ceramickangaroo]

what if u dont have an incubator?

[maculatum38]

It is a thermometer from coralife. You can find them online at many places. Try Dr. Foster & Smiths website.

[captainchris15]

whats the probe called? cuz i needa heat em

[captainchris15]

what is the probe called?

[maculatum38]

It's worked fine for me and alot of other people. I tried it and like the results.

[Boneyman]

Is it better to let the eggs sit on top of that separator or is it just a method that you use because it works.

[westsideab]

what humidity and temp should ball python eggs be at?

[shanethebarroomhero]

have you tried hatchrite??

[maculatum38]

No I have not....I just use good old perlite.

[trianglereptile]

[Silky2dope]
