I had a surprise from my Cherry Headed Red Footed Tortoise (Geochelone carbonaria) happen earlier this year. My Cherry Headed Red Footed Tortoise AKA "Darth Maul" laid a clutch of 7 eggs. One of the eggs molded over in the begining of incubation. However the other six are still good after...

Incubation is not mandatory, some just leave the laybins in a dark closet. I use incubator. Temp in the 71-78 range, as close to 100% humidity. Everyone have their own specific ways, I say it mostly depends on locale and demographics. Good luck with them.

If the neonate cannot slit the egg, they always say it’s not likely it would survive anyway…but sometimes, I think it has to do with how the eggs are incubated, how often you have the lid off the container while they’re incubating so that it dries the eggs out/messes up the humidity in the...

Anyone else want one of theses awesome incubators? A lot better than the ones built in the past for heating and cooling. What are your thoughts? https://www.wilbanksreptiles.com/pages/wilbanks-homeostatic-incubators

Are the eggs that are splitting all in the same area of the container? How many months/days have they been incubating? I can’t tell if that’s moisture on the lid since the photo is blurry…is it? I’ve never used pebbles to incubate eggs on, so I won’t comment on that. From what I know, eggs...

Hey so I have a clutch of eggs on the way and was wondering what other people use for incubators that doesn’t get to hot and keeps the consistent temp? I can’t do closet method as my hosue through the year ranges from lows 60s to high70s/low 80s.

Unfortunately not, and it will within no time negatively affect their health. Each chameleon will needs its own enclosure, with at least 2x2x4 dimensions. I’m seeing red lights, is that correct? Are you using UVB lights? Why buying a breeding/mating pair? Do you have all the equipment to...

...fan. The heating performance is optimal and maintains the desired temperature range, however, the ambient temperature of the room where the incubator is located, specifically my bedroom, tends to fluctuate when the central heating is turned on. This causes the temperature inside the incubator...

Hi everyone! In October I took in a gravid female veiled chameleon. She laid her eggs and I purchased an incubator to keep them safe. Early April, her eggs hatched. I now have 25 babies that need homes. I am located in Sarasota, Florida. Please let me know if you are interested and we can...

You mean put the unlatched eggs in the bin you have set up as a cage for the one that already hatched? Definitely NOT…leave them in the incubation container until they hatch…and don’t open the container to check on them too often either….you will upset the humidity, etc in the incubation...

Can you post a photo of the container you’re incubating the eggs in please? Is there a lid on it? Condensation on the under side of the lid? Are these panther eggs?

What are you using for a incubator?

Good idea!

Hello everyone, a friend of mine, my husband and I did some more work about soil temperatures, this time in the east of Madagascar. It was recently published in CHAMAELEO (magazine of the working group chameleons of the German society for Herpetology and Herpetoculture) and deals with nearly a...

You could try. No telling when he’ll be back on. In the meantime, the info I found about them is they do like dark, warm and humid places, so I imagine that would be the best environment to hatch the ooths. Maybe put a bit of lightly moistened moss around the ooths to maintain humidity. Other...

I’m new to this hobby (and community) and want to ask since it’s mentioned here: is a slight amount of moisture/humidity in an incubator ok or should there be none at all?

So glad to hear that everything went well! I find it truly amazing that they can even do surgery on reptiles! Will she produce eggs anymore?

Any plastic type container would work. You need vermiculite too…it’s hard to incubate them on soil. I’ll look for pictures and instructions for you. One alternative would be to bury them in the ground…but that might not work because she didn’t chose the site…and you might not chose right…if you...
