hey

i dont think my leopard geckos are quite ready to be laying eggs, but when the time comes i want to be prepared. I have heard to use water and a fish tnak heater and place the container on bricks. What do you guys think of this idea, or what do you guys think is a better way of making it.

(if possible could you include pictures of what it should look like)

keep in mind a low cost for all of this

thanks
matt

there was a post of someone who used a cooler and filled some 750ml bottles, one of the best home made I have seen here.

so the idea with the pop bottles, do the bottles get heated by a heat pad and then thats what heats the eggs??
