Incubator temp?

FatesDragon Sep 22, 2007 10:17 PM

Ok, i have read two different books on geckos. One says the the incubator should be kept at a consent temperature the other says that it shouldn’t. That at night the temperature should be brought down to 80 degrees for the night. So I want to know what do you do? What really works?

So, in a cool inviorment, use a Steady temp. In a hot inviorment, be careful, you most likely will get machos if you dont watch the temp.

But who doesnt like matchos? =]
