i was just reading through a post by reptiles ink and in there it says about the snake incubating the eggs, ive also read others use incubators,
basically i was wandering what is best and if possible a little info on both the options.

im not thinking about breeding ( yet ) mine are only 10 months old,but just for future reference

I don't think Dave was talking about RP's.

You tend to get a better hatch rate with artificial incubation - you can make sure the temperature and humidity are perfect constantly.

If you allow the mother to incubate, they don't tend to feed whilst doing so (so many months without feeding) and as the eggs need high humidity, you risk the mother getting an RI.
