Ok, let me first say I am not the sharpest tool in the shed. One of my girls is pregnant. I was not planning this so I am super freaked. I need a step by step guide for what I do now. From laying box to incubation temps.

I found an incubator at lllreptile and it comes with hatchrite anddeli cups. Is this a good incubator. Its a hovabator(I think). How much moisture do I add to the hatchrite.

Please help me I am super afraid she will drop these eggs soon I need help asap.

Has she been with a male? They don't need a lot of time together for the male to get the female pregnant. If you weren't prepared you shouldn't have housed them together!

I've never bred before, but I don't see why that wouldn't be a good incubator. Others with more experience may be able to help!

They were housed together but I was positive they were both girls. I checked my male three times before I put them together. Then on a routine check I saw his little pores. It was an accident I had no desire to breed at all. But it is done now and I have bashed myself enough for everyone I just need help now.

that package is a good incubator for this event and can be reused if you decide to breed. you can use sphagnum moss or coconut brick for humid hides so she can lay her eggs in. hatchrite does not need you to add water ratio just use as is. as for incubation temps 82degrees for females and i think 89 and up for males just make shure you dont go past 95 as that is a cooking point for them thats all i can think of i know my information is out of order but if you can write it down on paper it would make more sense so you have a plan! goodluck !

Hovabator is an excellent incubator. I have never used hatchrite but some say it works good. The next plan is to set them 2 down and talk abstinence :D

Thank you for your help. I had considered just letting them go but I can't do it. I believe everything deserves a chance at life whether unplanned or not.
