My female is definitely gravid, and I might have two more gravid females coming next week. Thanks Nick and Austin!

So, I have a few questions and hope someone responds.

1) What is the temp range that I should use to incubate eggs? I have the hova set up between 83-85 degrees F. Is that temp range appropriate for desert igs?

2) I have read that, like chuck babies, desert ig babies need to eat adult feces to establish gut flora. Is this true?

3) If question 2 is yes, then is it okay to put baby igs in with their parents or should I collect adult feces and put it in with the babies?
