Artificial incubation is prefered.
If the female has a rather large clutch which she can not coil around she will push several eggs to the side and only coil around what she can cover.The eggs that have been discarded will die.Also letting females incubate their own eggs takes alot out of them,they will lose alot of condition due to lack of food and excercise as they will give the eggs first priority over anything else.Condensation.mould and other associated problems are due to wrong incubation techniques.
