Incubator recommendations

[jmod]

Greetings All,

We're looking to get an incubator for some small leopard gecko breeding projects we've been working towards. I am thinking about going with a reptibator, but was curious if others had recommendations.

Thank you!

I use the Reptibator for my tortoise eggs. I like it much better than the Little Giant. The lid configuration allows more room between the heating element and the eggs.

The Reptibator, as I understand it, is pretty much the same design as the Hovobator that we used to use with a better temperature sensor and thermostat. As long as you understand that if the ambient temperature in the room exceeds your incubation temperature, the temperature inside the Reptibator will rise as well. Since I have no AC, this was an issue for me and my Hobovator spent summers in the basement which was effective but inconvenient for me. I later got an incubator that cooled as well as heated.
