From room temps, low seventies in SoCal. To a friend of mine incubated many colubrids at 90F. He was starting to see a few odd problems like mid body swellings, but they still hatched.
We use a common temp of 84F to hatch all manner of reptile eggs, torts, turtles, lizards, monitors, and a varity of snakes. But I have a room for an incubator and the temps are NOT steady. Again 84 is average.
Its gone up to nearly 100F and down into the fifties, no problems occurred. I have had eggs incubating in that room since 1993 continuously.
Rooms work more like nature as it allows temp changes to be slow and eggs do that. What eggs do not do well is, change temps quickly. Best wishes
