| what are the recommendations for incubators? i think i read somewhere the exo terra ones and similar are too small for python clutches or is that just the case if you have multiple clutches at once? |

| I've read so many bad reviews about the off-the-shelf "hobby" incubators, which commonly refer to the thermostat failing and cooking the eggs. I'll be shortly scrounging a stella fridge, ready to be rigged up with a heat cable and pulse stat - reckon I could rig up a pretty decent home incubator for a fraction of the cost of a branded one. |

As long as the tubs ain't hitting the floor and a steady temp holds
There's a really good thread with a home incubator
I'll find it
Here's the one i built
Cost me about £60 inc fans mats and the fridge it's self from eBay brought as faulty
Just took all the fridge stuff out
Oh and £32 for the pulse stat
I moved the fans about and added water bottles on the bottom heat mat
It's all trial and error
Till you get it right

I had an exo terra rain system,it sucked big time.The timer was off by hours,plus it was cheap crap with a huge price tag.
Heard the same thing to,thermostats being way of etc. |
