Old School Colubrids
Okay, with the snake room being upstairs in my house, we had a few close calls with the eggs getting too warm in the herp room. I keep them on the shelf, but on some warm days the room temp was influenced by warm outside temps.
We decided the best thing to do would be to place an incubator down in the basement were temps never exceed 72-74.
With 50 breeders, we were in need of a pretty big incubator. I got lucky and was able to locate a beverage cooler with glass door I got it for 100 bucks. what is nice about it is I can switch the compressor off. and keep the circulating fan on. also the light operates on an independent switch.
With some simple modification I will add some heat tape a helix and it will be able to handle all my clutches.
Will post pics of conversion when I do so but here are a few now. it stands 5' and is 2 feet wide
