Reptile eggs develop best in warm humid conditions and buried in clean, absorbent material. Temperature control can affect the sex of the hatchlings as well as the number that successfully hatch and so must be consistent, stable and accurately controllable. Reptile eggs absorb moisture during incubation (unlike bird eggs). They also require very high humidity and must not be turned.

The Hatchmaker R has been developed to offer these conditions to the Reptile breeder and comes with the added features as detailed below:

• The incubator is tough and well insulated with an observation window.
• Finite temperature control without the need for opening the lid.
• Removable reptilian chamber egg chamber offering virtually 100% humidity.
• Oxygen supply to the chamber is regulated by a simple vent control.
• The Incubation thermometer supplied is easily viewed through the clear inner plastic chamber.
• The Hygometer supplied allows accurate measurement of the Humidity.
• Vermiculite supplied with the incubator, half fills the inner chamber and is soaked in water before burying the eggs.

Approx. Egg capacity:

Leopard Geckos 120, Tortoise 70, Bullsnake 20.
