Hi Joodi,

one of my females shed on the 6th March like yours and finally had a clutch of 4 beautiful eggs (and no slugs) last night so there is still hope, good luck

Thanks! In the incubator I've got the mat stat at 31C and so far humidity is 92% and temp inside the tub is 24.5C bearing in mind I've only had it on for half hour. Does it need to be 100% humidity and 31C inside the tub??

88f (31.1)in the tub is what i aim for to allow for temp spikes when it gets hot
it may take a bit longer to pip but its best to aim lower as you dont want to let the eggs get to hot

best to aim for as high humidity you can
i have 9L rubs and i put cling flim over them to keep the humidity high
my humidity reader never goes below 99%

It's 31C inside the tub now but only 94% humidity... Will I have problems if I can't get the humidity to 99%+ ?

Humidity is now at 87% and not rising at all.. I've made sure the vermiculite has the right amount of water and I've put cling film over the top of the tub before putting the lid on but it's still not rising. Temp inside the tub is currently 30.8C
