Hey!

I've never bred before, but I do know that no cooling period is necessary at all. If you want to know how to incubate your eggs and temperatures you'll need to give you all male, all female or just both here is great link!

Hope that helped.

but im sick of little kids of 13-16yrs old wanted to breed animals but yet cant take care of themselfs,coming here asking for a incubator just proves once again another person who shouldnt have animals.instead of wasting your time breeding them why dont you learn optimun care for them and enjoy what you have instead of trying to breed them,if you need funds for a incubator then you probly dont have the money for at least 5 small enclosures to house them in and not to mention all the hides,water bowls,and humid hides you will need. just do the reptile family here a favor and dont breed anything.

Not all 12-16 year old people are like that. I'm 16 and I know how the animals should be treated. Someone needs to take a nap, they're getting cranky.

you should have seen some of the animals i ruscued in the past from young teenagers who just didnt find the animal cool anymore,not every teenager is like that but if you seen some of the neglect you would agree.

Well, I just like picking on people. Lol, so yeah. I don't really care because I've been around animals all of my life and I know how to treat one and not treat one. If you buy/procure an animal you should always treat it like a living being and not a "Disposable Pet". They have lives, needs, and wants also. If you get something you should have the time to take care of it and make sure that it doesn't get ill. And, if it does, take it to the vet don't let it suffer. Haha.

Those "begginers" are only the future of the hobbie, and will one day become the big names in breeders. Everyone starts somewhere you know! Just keep that in mind next time O.K.? =)

kali why so ignorant? i am 17 and have been keeping leos along with other herps since i was 7 and have sucessfully helped people breed there leos just like someone in the posts below said we are up coming hobbyests and will make a name for ourselfs soon enough just because some teens do not know how to properly care for out animals doesnt mean you have to label us as people who cant care and properly breed herps as well as other animals i happen to know some people on this forum who happen to be friends of mine who in a heartbeat know more than i you and most of the other ignorant fools on this site who think they know all there is to know none of us know all there is to know so do not be so rude and stop labeling us teens as people who cant properly breed or care for our animals

hey im only 13 but i have kept herps and im not gonna give one away. im trying to learn all that is possible about leos before i start breeding them, which i do have the funds for that I have saved up so far in a bout 2 months, and over $100. I am a very responsible person so i am not all bad.
