I just hatched out two seperate clutches totaling 20 corn snakes.
They were incubated at 80-82 degrees except for a weekend I was away during a heat wave where the basement temps go into high 80's. Thet were in a hovabator that didn't cool. Every snake hatched out male! was it because of the temp spike or do I just have the worst luck. I have bred these same snakes in past and have had good mix in the past.
