Home made incubators

[TEENY]

No snazzy pics but just to say i am using one of the poly box ones at the moment and it seems to be working just fine so far. No real change in temps, humidity is great and eggs look fab

[dazspark]

for royals does cooking the eggs at a certain temp define whether they are male or female hatchlings
if it does what are the temps ????
thanks for all the valued info

Ok this may sound like a daft qestion...but can you use and old freezer aswell as an old fridge??

this is the 2ND time Ive had success with the poly-box incubator.
Ive just hatched 26 beardies and 10 cwd today with 100% hatch rate I'm using a pulse stat which kept temps steady
cant fault the good old poly-box incubator

Those that have built their own Poly Box incubators and have their heat mats on the side or lid, how do you attach the heat mats?

Cheers.

get the right size mat to hold itself in place?

I used paper clips. Open them up, and then put them at an angle over the corners... push through the polybox... if that makes any sense...lol
