Personally, I don't let the mothers incubate...though I have been curious about observing the process. Basically, I don't like the thought of letting them stay off feed that long - many females will not eat while incubating babies (according to some that have done it). Also, I'm just more confident of the conditions in the incubator than the cage (I have an awful time maintaining 55-60% humidity this time of year).
FYI, at 89 degrees, my Cape York spotted pythons hatched in 52 and 49 days last year.
