Dude I Hate That You Don't Get The Views You Deserve. You The Number 1 Under Rated Reptile RUclipsr
oh thanks so much for saying that! feel free to share with your friends :)
Lambona
WHY ARE YOU SSSOOOOOOO UNDERRATED IT IS CRAZZY
thanks! hey feel free to share with you friends
take a shot every time he says he's not an electrician lol
But seriously great video! this will come in handy down the road when I decide to breed :)))
hahaha, just want to be very clear about how I am unqualified to do anything but talk to a camera in my basement.
This is so helpful for us just starting out & for hobby breeders trying not to spend a ton of money.
I was looking at glass beverage cooler setups, but now that I know I can do this with one of the many coolers my husband has in the shed.. that’ll be my go-to to start!
Thank you so much!
This is fantastic! Thank you
This was such cool information ! Definitely gonna do it
Very helpful! I'm gonna make one this week
This definitely helped!!! Thanks!
This video is amazing. Thank you so much. Will be building one shortly For my first clutch June 2023 😊
This was great thank you!!
This is awesome! My bf and I were just talking about investing in an incubator but I'm all about DIY projects if I can do them and this looks so easy to do! Also, I love the Canadian flag on your other incubator!!!
Great video very informative
Thank you for this video, going to be following it for incubating my ball python eggs!
All those hatchlings were adorable. Such fragile little bebes
Really informative, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for watching
Great demo! Thanks for the information.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice video! I remember the one from a couple months back! Cool that you found a less expensive way.
Thanks!
I'm preparing to have my first snake - ball python - and in a few years a want to start breeding project. I absolutely adore You and Your channel, it's so helpful, fun and it's just so nice to watch. I really can just binge watch You for few hours 😄 Thank You for all the work You put into this, and for Your love for these animals
Awesome guide, thanks for making this video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is priceless. Thanks for making this video!
My pleasure!
Great video man helpful
Glad you think so! thanks for watching
Thank you so much! My ex breeder ball python laid eggs this morning. I have her as a pet and I've never incubated eggs in my live. This is going to help me out so much, because I want to give them (the eggs) the best possible chance!!
This is going to be soooooo helpful for my first ever breeding in 2 to 3 years and for my future project (5 or 6 years down the line) for an extremely bright sharp patterned snake. I dont wanna spoil it but potentially could be crazy! So excited!!
cool stuff
Thank man you help me a lot
Thank you
This was very helpful for my future breeding plants with my house snakes! Great video!
Great to hear!
@@WickensWickedReptiles is it possible to do it with a heat mat instead?
Just love how many times you said clamps. I thought I was Futurama for a minute there!! Great video love you channel
Adam I appreciate this video. This coming season I'm going to breed my Bel and Mojave together. Hoping for my first clutch and didn't want to spend hundreds on an incubator for one clutch, although I would've. Thank you!
Fingers crossed!
That's so cool so creative
thanks!
I will be using this soon for my gecko and snake project
I'm doing this! Thank you. wish I knew this in January
You're so welcome!
That was really helpful and looks supper easy going to save a good amout of money on that
Glad it helped
Really good video and I will use this method if I ever decide to breed reptiles
Go for it!
Great video brother.
Much appreciated
That’s awesome. Thanks Adam. Can’t wait to start breeding leopard geckos. Building my own incubator would be awesome.
Adam thanks for this video. I made this box and from that i hatched 6 leopard gecko eggs last year
Nice work!
Really nice, cheap, and easy design! Man, I wish i had to worry about keeping my reptile eggs heated - I unfortunately live in Arizona, so more than anything I have to worry about cooling mine down! Thanks for all the info anyways, really valuable if I ever end up living somewhere with a bit more reasonable of temperatures lol.
Love that we use the same thermostat
The best!
Really appreciate your passion and willingness to share reptile info with the community! Your content is amazing!
Thank you so much 👍
Very good video. This was VERY helpful. An video idea I have is one I've mentioned in the past. It's a list of the top 5 most beautiful/amazing venomous snakes.
Great suggestion!
This is a great video, haven't finished it yet but it's very educational
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wickens Wicked Reptiles yeah it was great, I'll definitely use this, thanks for the video
Yup I'll be doing this
wicked!
Bro, you literally just saved me $1500!!!!! Instant Sub
super easy! thank you! How is it at holding humidity? do you use plastic shoe siezed boxes with vermiculite in them to maintain the high humidity?
great video going to order a massive cooler now :)
Hope you enjoy it!
I'm 3 years away from breeding and I'll be a small breeder. So.. this was insanely helpful. Ty.
Love the video you should watch the reach out reptiles video he uses water in the bottom of a cooler like that with a circulation pump and two tank heaters so it keeps the humidity at all times to
You make this look super easy, thank you! Going to try this soon rather than converting a mini fridge. How has it worked for you over time and how many ball python clutches are you able to fit?
Thank you sir
All the best
Super helpful! Not sure if the wiring stuff will transfer over to the UK, will definitely check it out though!
should translate, the male and female end look a bit different but everything else is the same. thanks for watching :)
good idea.
Many many thanks
Great video Adam you know you can also buy plastic insulators that snap over the metal clips that cover the exposed metal clips that crimp on your heat tape. I was also told to run electrical tape over the cut end of the heat tape so you dont have exposed contacts on the unwired side of the heat tape. Again great video keep them comming.
Great tip! yes I should have mentioned that!
Gonna try today
nice!
hell yeah thank you.
Rock on!
yooo thanks man! you just saved me like 100 bucks
Glad I could help!
Hi- I had 3 incubators because I used to hatch all kinds of poultry eggs. Never thought of reptile eggs!!
Thank you for this! Came here from the "why you shouldn't breed" video. If you breed rodents (mice specifically) i would LOVE something with info on that too. This was great!
Thankyouuuuu
You're welcome 😊
Yooo sick
thanks
very helpful i plan to use this setup for ball python eggs in the future, would heat cable work instead of heat tape?
nice
Hello Mate...do thermostat need to be dimming one?and heat mats are dimmable or stable?thabk you great project
Thank ye lord wicken ye hath saveth me boat loads of money
hahaha
I love all ur videos I have 2 Leopard geckos and starting to research on breeding your video's have helps me so much with reptiles I was going to get and finding out they wasn't right for me now my geckos are spoiled brats lol
Like how do you keep humidity in there for leopard geckos am just curious i would like to try breed my pupies xD maybe next video about the proces how often you open it how often you spray down to keep it humid enought great vid keep it up :)
Love the video would this work for chameleons too? Also why do some people give air holes and some don’t?
This was very y helpfull thank you
The vivosun thermostats are fantastic for the price
for sure
Adorable oodles of noodle caboodles!
If only it was so easy to build a bird incubator (believe me, I've tried)! Also, how about top 5 Geckos? Another great video, thanks man!
Thanks for the idea!
There's an Amazon product that is a reptile grade heating pad with a built in thermometer. Would that work just as well as the heat tape?
The term you're looking for as to why to use water to retain the heat is specifc heat. It takes a lot of energy to change the temp of water 1 degree, so this is why is retains heat so well.
well said!
Great video. Where do you get the heat tape and clips?
I have no idea where to get those clips now, Dino Reptiles is out of business
Hey do you have the link for the big black round thing ?
Even though I'm from the UK I've always used Fahrenheit for my reptiles for some reason
which cages brand do you use?
Very helpful! I've seen this done with water in the bottom and heated with an aquarium heater as well. The eggs do okay with no air exchange? Or do you open the top periodically?
Should definitely have some ventilation of some form...
You either want to poke some very small ventilation holes in the containers the eggs are in, or once a week open them up and allow for some good gas exchange.
right! do not ventilate the cooler at all ever! just exchange air every few days.
@@WickensWickedReptiles How???
@@jdulmes Like they said above: either have some tiny holes in the egg boxes, or open the egg box lid once a week so the eggs can get fresh air.
Question. Could you cut a chunk of the lid out, put plexiglass, seal it, and be able to watch the eggs without opening the lid often? would it still contain heat well or do you think it would be best to leave it alone? I plan on breeding this year and it may be a dumb question but I'm very curious!
Was wondering why you made a 2nd DIY incubator video. Had to go back to the 1st one and saw it was already a pre-made one you were just explaining how to make, and this one you're actually building in the video. lol. But, more room for more eggs I suppose.
the other one is still full of eggs and at a lower temp
My Beardie I adopted last month just laid eggs!!! I am trying to reach the previous owner to see if she was around any males!
instead of heat tape can you use heat mats ? by the way amazing video. i love your channel
maybe? never tried but it may work
Does the kind of cord matter? Like voltage or something?
Hi, insted of heattape, can I use a heatmat? I do not think i can buy heat tape where I live
The same time as I
Definitely will be using this when I finally start my breeding projects! I was wondering if you could just use a heat mat instead of heat tape if you already have one laying around.
U can’t
@@JesusChrist4ever dang:(
@@JesusChrist4ever why not give me a reason
Could you use a huge heat pad instead of heat tape?
cool
thanks
So if I had a small box off eggs in a container where should the thermostat probe go in the container or the air ?
I’m 3 years late to this but did this setup work well for your ball python clutch?
"Make sure no metal is not covered" is the correct way to use a double negative! Well done!😂
did I actually say that? I'm a language snob. No way I said it like that
It was typed on screen as you were taping the contacts on the heat tape. It took me a second to process, I will admit, but once I did, it was absolutely right.😂
Could I also use a heat mat ??
As someone getting into breeding my ball pythons this is life changing. My male banana and his 3 gfs will definitely enjoy watching me try this out without electrocuting myself while using the multimeter to check cables.
My Geckos are gonna be laying eggs in couple weeks, could I use a heat mat as welll ?
What are the clamps he used to connect the heat tape called?
Would this work for all reptiles? Especially tortoises.
Would this be good for hatching bearded dragons eggs we made a mistake thinking they were both girls but 1 was a boy and they ended up having 12 eggs so this is my first time hatching eggs and BTW what are the tools you used to make it and were can I get them to
You should do a diy snake rack😉😉
maybe soon
I've looked for an incubator for 4 hours now and all the ones were so expensive! You are a genius!!!
:)
Is it possible to use a heat mat instead of heat tape?
what is the brand and name of the heating sheet that was used? this type of tape or sheet looks perfect for my application!
It's flex watt
Wait what were those little metal things he put on the cord??
