On ebay you can get ceramic lamps that go in a light fitting so it doesnt matter what time it is they can flick on and off to the stats content

I can get a humidity to be stabilised around the 70% mark with my old incubator, I doubt it would be that hard to get it higher.
I'm just wondering about any potential issues that could be caused to embryos with a fairly bright light as an incubation medium instead of normal heat source.
Surely what would amount to 60 odd days of 'sunlight' could conceivably cause eye issues....

It's just a general query really, I've not seen anyone incubate anything other than poultry eggs with a light source.

light heated i'd be concerned about humidity not stabilising and not being at a high enough %age

Question for other experienced breeders as well.

What do you think the abilities are for light heated incubators? I've wondered this with reps since my freezer conversion incubator.
