either a pulse or a dimmer stat as they're most accurate
dimmers tend to be more expensive, i prefer pulse's anyway
the most common brands are Habistat and Microclimate although others are available, i use both brands with my various set-ups and incubator |

if you search on here and tick the box for 'archived posts' you should find some pics
pulse stats i usually get off ebay but pretty much anywhere should do them
try http://www.kingdomreptiles.co.uk/4.html or swift or triple 8

has she stopped eating? when they're full of eggs they often go off their food as it's uncomfy to eat and pass it through their system
if you've provided a large damp hide for her just sit tight for now and try not to disturb her too much
for an incubator i use a poly box with a heatmat and a pulse stat. incubation medium is vermiculite with sphagnum moss on top |

ive not done this before either i thought my two were both females so its an unexpected pregnancy im using an icecream tub with moss in but alot of people suggest going to your local pet shop and get a poly box which they transport fish in thry will normally let you have these free of charge put a heat mat in the bottom and then the tub with moss or vermiculite on top with a thermastat |
