When/ how do u get the new borns to a container from incubater?

cito Sep 06, 2003 07:08 PM

Supposing my 2 milk eggs hatch, how would i get them from the incubater to their new cage?, I mean i think if i leave them in the incubater overnight for example, they would probably suffocate becuase there is no way out of the incubater and their is only one tiny tiny hole which has the thermostat sensor going through it.

There should be more than a plenty of oxygen in the incubator for a couple of days or more after after they hatch if you dont find them immediatly. A couple of small hatchlings use very little oxygen. As soon as you see that they have hatched just open the incubator, carefully pick them up and place them in their new enclosure. Good luck.
