I am a first time breeder and would appreciate some input on my incubation situation. I think it's working but a bit nervous as it's not a regular incubator.
I got my hovabator some time ago, and it has disappeared under boxes somewhere in the garage, unopened. My beardie girl surprised me with 14 healthy eggs and I am incubating them on peat moss/sand mixture in a 10 gallon tank, eggs on top of the substrate and inside sterilite tub with the same peat/sand bedding, mix kept at proper humidity and temps. There is a screen top, and the heat source is a 75 watt bulb on the screen which is keeping the temps right at 84 degrees F at the site of the eggies.
So far five days in, eggs are plump and look fine according to all I've read.
Anybody have a suggestion as to whether they think this will work okay, or should I do something differently?
Thanks in advance!
