Use vermiculite. Add water to it until it is nicely damp through and through, but not "Wet" and dripping. Usually about 50/50 in actual weight is about right. Incubate at 90 degrees.


:Hi all, I have been breeding boas for almost five years now. I never bred any pythons before. This is my first time breeding pythons (well just burms this year) I have one very gravid burm and possably 2 more. I built an incubater out of an old frig and I am not sure what substrate to use with the eggs? Also any other good pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all your help (in advance). Lee

:PS. The picture has nothing to do with this forum but I thought some of you would like to see it. Thanks again, Lee
