well this year i will be breeding my corns and my mom is bredding her veilds
what is the best incubator for them and can i use the same incubator for them both?
also i may be breeding my leos in a while so could i use it for them?
im thinking of getting a hovabator but how do you use that for reptile eggs the hovabator automaticly turns them from what i understand?
if anyone can give me info on buying or making a reliable incubator it will help alot




thanx froggy

dont need a hova bator. just get an insulated box fill it with water, pop a fish heater inside set the temps. place a shelf or bricks or whatever and sit you egg tubs on top.

you just want a steady temp, humidity is rather easy to keep with just your egg tubs so if you ahve a constant appropriate temp in your house you can avoid the incubator thing.

corn and leo eggs are dead easy and will take a lot of abuse. chameleons are goign to take you 7 months give ro take. i had bad luck with mine before, so i shouldnt give you any pointers. just keep in mind their long incubation times.

You can use the same TYPE of incubator, but not the same one!!!! Obviously they will all need different temps, humidity, and amounts of time to hatch.

(Sorry if i read your post wrong, but it sounds to me like your going to have eggs from different species to incubate at once and you wanted to use just one incubator...)
