Keep them at 84F. The only materials you need are an incubator.

Oh, I thought you could use shoeboxes and stuff like that to make incubators?
Where can I get a cheap incubator?

lol, I keep mine in a rubbermaid on spagnum under the bathroom sink, a buddy with an air-conditioned apartment keeps his in a rubbermaid on spagnum on the back of the fridge. we both get good (not great ~80%) hatch-rates.

cool, so you just remove them from the snakes cage without flipping them and then stick them in there...do you use anything to put around the eggs? an insulator or anything?

Go to my gallery and you will see a step by step guide to building an incubator. It works great and it's thanks in most part to Jeff Favelle.
Cheers,
Trevor

for me, I specialize lol, I use a double tray rubbermaid one side for eggs in damp spagnum the other in soaking wet spagnum without spagnum. my partner uses a single compartment and sprays lightly every other day.

Go to the gallery and type in Boidkeeper in the search field that should do it.

Thanks Thomas. After all the question I asked I felt that pics would help the next person who asked how to make one if they were visual like me. I've made two this year and they are both working great. The only tip I can offer is don't skip on the heater I bought a low end one and the best one and setting them is night and day.
Cheers,
Trevor

also you can put like 3 or 4 inches of waer in a fishtank hen stick a fishtank heater in it , put two bricks in the water and then put the eggs in a plastic shoebox and put the shoebox on top of the bricks
