my first potentially gravid female

[Madness420]

so fo a while now i have been pairring my male pinstripe with my female spider and this past week i have found her laying inverted, laying in a perfect coil, and wrapping her water bowl. she also looks like she is going to shed in the next week or 2. i have my incubator set up and working fine, and i just bought a bag of vermiculite to make a bedding for the eggs. i am curious about the incubation temps, i have heard a range from 88.5°F to 89.9°F and i am just curious as to within that range if there are documented genetic effects half a degree warmer or cooler has on the fetal developement, such as gender or color contrast or size... anyway, here are some pictures of my girl...

Keep pairing. She isn't close yet.

As for temperatures during incubation. The 1.5 degrees difference you're asking about won't make a difference. Gender in ball pythons is not linked to incubation temps.
