New python incubator. Don't trust the room incubator idea so I built this instead. Hold 18 Ball Python clutches, or 12 Jungle clutches! Crazy eh? Been at 89.1F for 3 days now. Time to put eggies in. Same concept as the one we did for you, only bigger and a little more involved.

Looks like a neat set up Jeff! :)

What are your thoughts on using the old "fridge and some heat tape" method? I have been thinking about doing that in the near future...

Neato!:D! I love it.....What are the dimensions??

Dimensions are 36x36x30.

Cranwill, I still don't trust the fridge deal for python eggs. Colubrid eggs, yes, python eggs, no. I like a dry substrate (or no substrate) and 100% air humidity. Hard to do that in a fridge with heat tape.

Jeff we better start filling that thing up right away. No point in just having it laying around taking up snake space.

What would your thoughts be on an old fridge using a water heater in a bucket for heating on the bottom?

I have tranfer my eggs on a no substrate as well .. I am loving the results...

Awesome incubator.. does it not loose all the heat though when u open it with such a huge door?

Ha ha, ok Ian. I have a deal for you. Just for this year, I'll hatch all your python eggs and I'll only take 1/3 of the clutch.

Great deal eh?

:D
