>>Thank you! Is there a good incubator you could recommend that isnt hundreds of dollars? I know the eggs will be okay with mom a couple of days but I don't want her to get all worn out with them the whole time. >>I had thought about putting them in a hovabator on a terra cotta saucer with really damp vermiculite under it, then I thought about trying to build the water aquarium incubator that I read about in a book. >>I will be crushed if I kill these eggs! Thank you again!
I would suggest not using the vermiculite in the saucer. Instead, leave it empty or use dry sphagnum moss. After your girl has laid her eggs in the pot, place a wet towel over the pot or raise the humidity to 80-90%. Any wetness that touches the eggs can kill them.
Good luck. Brandon ----- www.brandonosbornereptiles.com
