So I read that blood python eggs generate surprising heat during incubation but heres a interesting trend ive noticed...

From around 9a to 2p, the egg clutch generates enough heat to raise the incubators temp about 2 degrees. However, from 2pm to midnight they generate almost 6 degrees of heat!

I guess they do their growing (metabolising) in the afternoin and evening. Anyone else ever notice anything like this?
