Thanks Zoe,

I added the incubation system for my pythons on my JCP thread.......as for my corns ,milks,rats and kings ........I have stuck with the vermiculite and water by weight mixture and they just sit on the top of my shelving units .......they stay a perfact 82......And hatch at about 62- 65 days......

Heres a pics at the start of the season:D

Dont know ........have the best Temperate room out there........Incubates eggs better than any incubator and during hibernation season it keeps the adults at a 53-55 temp for the whole time I need it to just by turing off the heat......Very kool indeed............LOVE my Temp. room:D

That's very nice isn't it. What floor is it on, ground or basement? I had to move my incubators down stairs a few weeks back because it hit 90 up there for a bit. Cost me some eggs too I think.
Thanks,
Trevor
