The aquarium type incubators work fine. But you don't need one for colubrid eggs. Just put them in a shoe box of moist vermiculite or sphagnum moss and then put them in a warm location. On top of a refrigerator or in a warm closet is a good spot. The one problem with any incubator is the possibility of heater malfunction. Nothing is more discouraging than finding several hundred eggs cooked because a heater or thermostat malfuctioned. IMHO
