I was wondering what incubation material everyone here uses? Also what brand incubator or homemade? And finally what temperature do you incubate at?
Thanks.

Only my first year with hognose.. so I may have just gotten lucky 
I used a hovabator, the basic model.. no fans. I used a sterilite shoebox to hold the eggs inside the incubator. 2" of perlite on the bottom topped with a bit of bed-a-beast. Not sure on exact humidity, moist but not wet. The shoebox did not have any holes in it, I would open it daily for a minute to exchange air. I set the incubator at 82F, but it varied from 81-84F. Eggs hatched out after @6 1/2 weeks. Only eggs I lost were infertile.
