I've been sleeping in my reptile room for the last 2 weeks now in anticipation of the coming season and just like a switch being flicked on, last night was when the signs I've been waiting for became evident. Started the prepping for eggs around 9pm late last night as some females have become increasingly agitated and looking for ways out of their aquariums.
A couple of egg containers have been prepped, vermiculite and rain water combined by weight at the ratio 1:1, one of the incubators has been fired up, new lights fitted, temp set and run all night to check for thermostat accuracy... we are all good to go!
Today, hopefully is the day the 1st eggs for 2020 are put into the incubator! Just waiting for the sun to get up a bit and warm the sand in the outdoor pit and we'll see what happens!
