as of right now my eggs are at my friends reptile store but my question is i've been told to keep the temp at 75 but when i get my incubator system how cold should i let it drop for nights???
 
Nightime drop isnt needed for incubation. In fact an incubator isnt even a necessity. I believe in the closet method. You cant screw up a clutch in the closet unless you drown your eggs with too much water. But Ive seen alot of people lose their whole clutch to an f'd up incubator. Its your eggs and your call though. I have hatched many eggs using tupperware and just putting them in a cool dark place. (ie under the bed, in the closet, or in a dark cabinet in a cool room) I just try to make sure and keep the temps at 74 or below. My eggs may take a month or two longer to hatch but I never worry about em during incubation until I see em pipping.
