Quick Incubation Question

[JustChad04]

Quick question for the experienced Ball Python breeders.

Question 1.) Incubate at 88-89 degrees correct?
Question 2.) If no pip what day is best to cut? Ive read numerous responses but what would be a good median 55 days?

thanks

To be honest, if you are inexperienced then I would avoid cutting at all. If anything wait until the first one pips naturally, and put a small slice in the rest if you must. I set my proportional thermostat to 88.5 and place the probe inside a dummy tub set up the same way as my egg tubs. Good luck.
