Ok, I know that it' recommended to incubate at 88 or so. I had some gravid imports and thought I would see what happened if I cooked them at "room temp". The range has been between 82 and 86 degrees where i have them in the room. I know they aren't colubrids, but thought I'd try the same style incubation as some of my corns, rats, etc. Well, as expected, they are late hatching. I wondered if anyone else has done this or know anything about the difference in incubation times. Some were laid on 3/5 and are still good eggs. Seems like they'll be breedable when they hatch 
I appreciate any feedback. Mike

at the 85-87 range they can take up to 65 days. 82 is dangerous, they may go bad at such a low temp

I really appreciate it. I've had 3 hatch finally, and a few more that are piping. They're super odd and wondered if it was due to the odd incubation temps. I'll get some pics on here as soon as possible. Thanks again, Mike
