Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I don't have an incubator, but I have a plastic container with a hole in the top and some perlite.I was wondering what the ratio of water to perlite should be thanks.

I have never used perlite, sorry! But I wanted to tell you that I incubated my first clutch of eggs the way you are going to, in a plastic container. I measured the temps in the garage and different locations outside (at different times of the day and night) to find places where I could maintain a constant temperature. I had to move the container several times a day.

My room stays within 80-87 degrees farenhiet.Would that be fine?I can move them to a room where it is 83-89.

Hi Snow, I have also never used perlite, just vermiculite. The temps in your room would be more appropriate. I always keep my incubator at mid 80 range approx. 84 . Always remember not to let temps go below low 70's or 90/ above

Mid 80's is the safest way to go.
