incubation

chrismorasky Nov 13, 2005 02:26 PM

Seems that most breeders keep their ball python eggs at between 89 and 90 degrees. I have read that they can be successfully incubated from 80 to 91 degrees. Does anyone have any experiece with incubating at lower or higher than normal temps? At what temps would babies be at more risk of coming out unhealthy. What temps are lethal?

Thanks for your input.

We're looking at 87-91. Anyone know differently (as in experience)?
