Chameleon Breeding! Questions Incubator And I Am New!

[ChameleonSmameleon]

So.....I got an offer to take in 2 pregnant Veiled's. Basically one is gonna drop any day now. The lady I am getting it from said that she would either hold the babies eggs for me until I get my Cham cage I ordered. Anyway I also am gonna get a incubator for the eggs. Does this incubator work? http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog...s/-/specialincubator-hatchrite-and-deli-cups/ Will it hold possibly 130 eggs?

Welcome to the forum!

I can't answer your question about the incubator since I have never used that one....just wanted to say "welcome".

I have never used that product, but I would say that it would only hold about 60-70 eggs tops.

I have no idea just where you come from, but if you must use an incubator, then try this for your needs...

it might cost you a bit more at first, but should hold at least the amount you are going to be dealing with.

That fridge will not hold that many eggs.

That fridge does not hold more eggs than the hovabator . I have both and have used both. If you are incubating veiled eggs I would recomend the hovabator. If you are concerned with how much it will hold buy 2. Still cheaper than the fridge.

If you stack the deli cups and position them right you can fit a lot of eggs in one of hovabators. They work great.

Here is a link to the mini fridge similar to LLLreptiles just less $$$$. A forum member fearaffect showed me this. It is recommended to put a dish of water in the bottom to keep humidity. Good luck.

Your not likely going to get 130 eggs. I had 3 females drop and I have 125 eggs. Clutches extremely large aren't common average would probably be between 30-55 in my experience although much larger clutches are possable. You could just snag a cooler and use heat tape or a heat lamp. I currently have veiled and beaded lizard eggs in this type of setup! Works like a charm. I think people way over think incubators as many different things will work. Eggs are far more durable then people give them credit. In the wild they may have to go through many different temps and humidities!
