RE: incubation times.
Hi Steve,
There is no real confusion. Incubation times can be accelerated by
incubating at higher temps. For RAC for instance, I incubate at room temp
for 8 months. A friend claims that he managed hatches in three by using a
high tech incubator.
I would rather incubate cooler and wait longer. There is less chance of
cooking your eggs or getting belly sliders by rushing them.
You might disagree. But before you take any advise regarding incubation time
you should also get all of the rest of the details.
Best regards,
~RJ~

Subject: incubation times.
I'm trying to reorganized my egg storage so that I drop annual eggs at the
right time. As I'm looking through old emails, websites, etc., I'm getting
conflicting info on the length of time to keep the eggs on peat. For
instance I've seen a dry period for S. zonatus as 2 months or 4 months, for
T. dolichopterus as 7 months or 3.5 months. I'm hoping someone can clear up
the issue. Here are the species concerned: S. flavacaudatus, T.
dolichopterus, S. zonatus, N.sp kilombero. Thanks for the help.
Steve
