Hey everyone,
I have just had a clutch of eggs laid, yippee!!
Last year out of the 25ish eggs only 9 hatched so this year i want to do better, she has laid about 16ish eggs this year.
Last year i put the eggs on vermiculite in a plastic container in a polystyrene box with a heat mat and thermostat, however the plastic box the eggs were in didnt have a lid on.
This year shal i put a lid on the box the eggs are in and only open this once a week? |

I created 2 separate ones on mybannermaker and pasted both IMG codes next to each other. You can do this or Georgina is making some brilliant ones with images you send her as long as you make a donation to this website. When I get some decent pictures of my snakes I will be using her skills |

If u keep the lid on an only remove once a week briefly for fresh air, u shouldnt really loose any of the moisture in there as it will be collecting on the lid an driping back in, that's why u put moss over eggs so they don't get dripped on. But yeah if u need to just drip a bit of around the eggs make sure its at right temp though. |
