Hello, I am trying to incubate tortoise egg in home made incubator. Humidity is about 75%. But I have to almost open the lid. Do you think that it is ok when the humidity is not changing and temperature is 29°c with almost opened lid. Or i should try make more holes and let it closed? I don't know what to do.
I have 2 midland painted turtles (male and female) My female has layed 2 batches of eggs a set of 2 and a set of 4. On set of eggs were layed in her sand and the other set was layed in the water. I'm hoping we can get some fertilized eggs. If she lays do I put the lid on or off
Hi ,great video . But I just have one question : do you need to put a light in the incubator .my stinkpot just gave birth to 2 eggs and I’m quite new towards these . Ty
No, you don’t really have a way to control temperature that way. Also eggs would have to be completely covered as light bulbs send out a wave length that would start to cook the egg.
@@DiamondbackTerrapins thank you..can i asked again whatt is the other way to haych the egg turtle bec.this is our first time that our turtle is giving birth
Thank you for this video! My box turtle just laid eggs and this is my first time!!
@@hydrastunt8160 sadly they weren’t fertile :( I was so sad when I found out.
@@Squidwardcheated is there males? If there are males then i wonder why it isnt fertile
@@fidelitanavarrete5624 there were no males. I’d never had a turtle that randomly laid eggs I was shocked lol
Great video thanks for sharing. Please keep making more videos me and my kids always enjoy watching your Channel.
Congrats on the Southern Painted's hatching!!
Copper Canyon Terrapins Thanks!
Hi. Does the method apply to wild turtles as well?
The heat I purchased was preheated at 75 and it keeps turning off, and won’t heat the water.

Do you cover that cooler afterwards? Or leave it open?
I am assuming you put the lid on the cooler? Correct? I have yellow ear sliders I am trying to hatch out! Very excited.
How much day its take to hatch egg
Do you by any chance know when you’ll be selling diamondback terrapins again?
How long do u need to incubate them for? Or do u just put them There and leave in on 24/7?

@@DiamondbackTerrapins Thank you!
What happens if u accidentally messed up the orientation of the egg
Hi ,great video . But I just have one question : do you need to put a light in the incubator .my stinkpot just gave birth to 2 eggs and I’m quite new towards these . Ty
Yenn S. No, no light. The aquarium heater warms the water, which warms the air, which warms the eggs.
DiamondbackTerrapins thank you !
Do you open the box to let the air go?
How long it will takes to hatch the egg? I mean days? And the aquarium water heater. How does it works? I mean, is that plugged 24/7?
Depends on the species of turtle. 60days being the shortest. The water heats the air. Yes it stays plugged in.
Can you use hot water?
Won't it be too moist?
What temperature will the egg not get cooked?
Once you go past 86°F you start to risking deformities or death the higher you go.
Can u use a 25 volt reptile light bulb?
No, you don’t really have a way to control temperature that way. Also eggs would have to be completely covered as light bulbs send out a wave length that would start to cook the egg.
You learned that from steff j
No idea, who that is haha
Great video do you have any Texas terrapins available
leo ybarra I do not, unfortunately I have no success with Breeding them. My two females have yet to lay for me.
Tempreture??
How warm or hot does it get?
As warm/hot as set the heater to.
How many fays
My tortoise just had an egg in lockdown
Whats crazy i just found wild turtle today and i think issa female it was on street while my mom was drive home she almost ran over it but save it 😓
Did baby come out
Hi cani asked if i dont have heater can i only used a light bulb??please can u notice me
Leth Tria No the light bulb produces heat wave that will cook the egg.
