I don't know about the necessity of a calcium supplement. Snakes that eat whole animals (mice, rats, etc.) should get plenty of calcium from the feeder animals. As far as the Hovabator, windows are nice, but don't get the one with the fans in it. They will dry your eggs out.

:Hi,I have a couple of questions as I'm new to snake breeding. First:I've read that it's a good idea to give young Gophers a calsium supplement.HOW? Second:I'm breeding S.D.Gophers and seriously thinking of using a Hova-Bator.Do I want it with windows,a fan? THANKS FOR THE HELP!!! Jeff Murphy
