Minimum incubation temp?

[LeoGirl575]

I heard that incubating fat tail eggs any lower than 82F will kill them? Is this true?

Thanks in advance

yes this is true

So as long as the incubation temp does not drop below 82F, it will be fine? Even 81.9F is not good? I'm just curious.

Thank you

well I have had fluctuations of temps down to 79 degrees with no adverse effects other then taking a little longer to hatch, but the temps only dipped this low during the coldest nights in the incubator. I do not recommend temps below 82 or above 87 if at all possible.

It is not true. The lowest I was safely go would be 79-80 for an extended period of time.

Wow no edit function that sucks....I thought this was Leo's my bad....

Thanks for the replies. So would I still be safe if I kept it at 82.0F even? (as long as it didn't go below that, of course)
