The Lucky Reptile Hatch Box is a true marvel of incubation technology. Simple and efficient. This reptile egg incubator has been specially adapted to the Lucky Reptile Herp Nursery II. Ten Lucky Reptile HatchBoxes fit into the Herp Nursery II and each of the HatchBoxes can hold up to 12 eggs.
The Hatch Box is equipped with a thermometer that allows you to monitor the temperature of the reptile eggs at any time. This measure not the temperature in the incubator or the average temperature, but the temperature of the eggs themself.
The real difference with other incubation boxes however, is the substrate-free incubation method. This is not only very hygienic, but also prevents a moulding of the eggs. Lucky Reptile states that by incubating over water (the box consists of an egg insert over a shallow bowl filled with water) there is a steady and sufficiently high humidity.
The Lucky Reptile HatchBox is made of a tough and easy to clean plastic.

HatchRite is a specially formulated breeding substrate for reptile eggs which already has the right substrate humidity. It is ready to use and no water has to be added.
HatchRite is being used by professional American breeders since years and lead to increased hatch rates and successes.
Normally it is not necessary to add water during the breeding process. When using HatchRite you simply open the bag and pour it into a closed breeding box.
HatchRite has been used with great success incubating amongst a lot of other species: bearded dragons, leopard geckos, corn snakes, ball pythons, green tree pythons, etc.

ProRep Vermiculite can be used as a substrate for spiders or as an incubation medium for reptile eggs. A 100% natural substrate made from exfoliated volcanic rock, it is inert and will not decay or go mouldy.
For use as an incubation medium place a thick layer of moistened Vermiculite in the incubation box. A moisture ratio of 2:1 Vermiculite to water by weight is suitable for many species but some species have different requirements. Carefully place the eggs in the Vermiculite with the top third of the egg exposed. When moving the eggs from the egg laying site to the Vermiculite take care to keep them the same way up. If possible ensure that the eggs do not touch each other during incubation. Please note that as incubation of reptile eggs is a complex process that varies from species to species, it is essential that you research the details for each species before eggs are laid and have a suitable incubator ready.

Incubation Substrates
When incubating eggs we generally recomend vermiculite or pearlite (hatchrite) as they retain a lot of moisture and are great for increasing humidity without soaking the eggs. If you are unsure on how to incubate your eggs or need advice on which unit you need or how to set it up please call use on 01604753823 and we can talk you through it.
