***Incubation temp variation question***

ZeR0 Jul 12, 2003 03:27 PM

I was planning on using albeys incubation method. 200 grams of perlie, 160 grams of water in a container, so its a 8:10 ratio of water to perlite, like it says on the site, and then putting it up on the shelf in my reptile room, which stays at a constant 81-82.7 degrees F. Would this be ok? Is the 1.7 range in temp to much? If it is, I was gunna use the incubator on a budget but this way would be easier. Thanks
