My favorite snake channel. Thanks for posting educational material and not videos of people getting bit on the face by snakes. When I need to learn I come here. When I want to be amused, I go watch Jay Brewer. Many youtubers don’t like to reveal the secrets of the trade to the public.
I always watch your videos, I’m always learning new things👍 I swear everything I know about genes, breeding and everything I’ve learned from your channel. They’re always great entertaining videos 🐍
Thanks for this. I am looking into breeding Ball Pythons and seeing what is best. I couldn't resist the thumbnail pic of Bobby being all curious and leaning his head on the incubator!
I have 4 R-com incubators plus one Brooder I use for opossum rehab. They are hands down the best on the market. I’ve built incubators and bought many- R-Com is head and shoulders above all others. Their reptile specific incubator trays are fantastic for reptiles and you can use your favorite substrate for hatching any reptile including crocodilians, lizards, snakes, chameleons etc.
After about five weeks I do open up the tubs and wipe down the condensation under the press and seal, maybe every week or so after 4-5 weeks once I see it build up.
Hey Chris I have a question for you. Can I plug in multiple heat pads to a power strip and that to a thermostat?? Similar to your first incubator, the homemade fridge.
Great video! I picked up a $3000 non-working glass front wine cooler for $50 off CraigsList. I'm too impatient not to peek all the time if I couldn't see the eggs. LOL. I've got all the parts to assemble an incubator but haven't set it up yet. I plan to use heat tape and two computer fans for circulation.
I wondered that also when I saw it on this video. There's another great incubator video on UA-cam that shows cutting a round hole through the cooler to pass all the wires through. Then seal up the whole after for use. The person used a drill bit for installing door knobs. That's what I plan to do.
I always wondered why you couldn't use the built in fan. Seems like it would be more efficient by pushing the warm air down and increasing circulation.
I'm pretty sure the box you are using at 9:00 isn't airtight. That's why air isn't a problem. I learned from camping and ice chests that a lot of containers you think are airtight are not.
So I'm thinking this season i might try and let the female do her thing and just leave the eggs in with the female. So what do u thi k about that . Good or bad.idea
I don't know why I'm here. I just got an incubator off Craigslist. I guess I just want to try to know if its any good... I don't even have a female yet...lol 😂 But I'm gathering up supplies. Hey it's better to have an incubator and no eggs than to have eggs and no incubator. Anyone want to guess what kind of snake I plan to breed? Hint : It's not the same one he's doing... I mean there's probably a clue on my "channel."

Thanks!
You can choose other birds and hatch pterodactyls! FINALLY!
thanks for the different incubator options to consider!
Awesome content. I always learn something new when watching your videos.
Perfect timing! Having new fridge delivered tomorrow, won’t have old one hauled away. WIN WIN Thanks Chris
You’re full of surprises brother!!!!!
Another great video!!!’🏆💪🏼🤙🏼
You da Man!!!!

Which R-com would be better for a beginner with ball pythons I was looking at the px-r90?
Guess i found another reptile guy to subscribe to! Thanks for the info!!!
Great video man. We were just talking about this the other day.
This was another darn good video. Thanks very much.
Thanks Chris do you ever crack open the tubs or replace the press and seal? Or do you just leave them for 60 days?
After about five weeks I do open up the tubs and wipe down the condensation under the press and seal, maybe every week or so after 4-5 weeks once I see it build up.
What do you do for humidity with these?
Would having the heat controller inside the incubator decrease the life of the controller? I know electronics don’t enjoy heat and humidity
Can you provide a link to where you got the second incubator? Thanks!
Hey Chris I have a question for you. Can I plug in multiple heat pads to a power strip and that to a thermostat?? Similar to your first incubator, the homemade fridge.
So, will the reptipro 6000 hold 2 clutches? 2- 6qt bins?

I am using a cooler but I am putting heat tape in it!
If I were to get a standing freezer and just put heat tape in it, is that safe? I'd have concerns about the lack of airflow if the door was sealed
When would you go about cutting ur snake eggs to hatch them
Garrett hartle always uses the cooler method.... need to circulate the water also.and hook to a thermostat
How do you get the power source into the fridge while keeping a seal on the door?

In the cooler versions, I recommend putting a submersible water filter to make sure the heat is dispersed evenly.
Nice
You should try to set it up so you use the fan that's built in with a cooler and just remove all the compressor lines

Off topic but how long do you store chicken eggs before you start incubating.
Anyone else notice the weed plants in the corner lolol
I bought one of those little incubators on Amazon and I don’t see how anything will be able to fit in it
I been incubating snakes eggs for more than 20 years without the need of an incubator.
So I'm thinking this season i might try and let the female do her thing and just leave the eggs in with the female. So what do u thi k about that . Good or bad.idea
Bad idea lmao
Hey Chris would you be interested in a female spider het albino weighing in at 2060g in trade for one of your hatchling bamboo?
No, I actually sold all of my spiders except one. If it didn't have spider in it I'd consider it.
@@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures alrighty thank you!!!
That is how I feel about spiders. They are really pretty, but I’d only want for a pet, not breeding stock.
l let mums MI saves all the worry of needing to worry about things, other then keeping mums healthy enough to do this.
👍🏽 @ 101
That vwr that he got for free is like 10k to 20k new.

Bobby... Bobby pls...
Only curious - why not let the female incubate the eggs?
I don't know why I'm here. I just got an incubator off Craigslist. I guess I just want to try to know if its any good...
I don't even have a female yet...lol 😂
But I'm gathering up supplies. Hey it's better to have an incubator and no eggs than to have eggs and no incubator.
Anyone want to guess what kind of snake I plan to breed? Hint : It's not the same one he's doing...

first
I cant breed my ball python anymore because the male has a hereditary disease.
