Question:

what is the best heating pad for reptiles on the market?

working on incubating 11 red eared slider eggs - 3rd year in a row, but the temp. these days is colder outside. They are inside in vermiculite and peet moss and they have another 20 days to hatch, they are forming, but the temp is dropping from 86 degrees to 79 degrees. Any suggestions?

Answer:

probably steel shafts would work but talk to a pro and have him watch you hit balls on the range he'll probably be able to tell from that
I would get an enclosed container such as a styrofoam cooler, and add flexwatt heat tape. Search Engine Incubating and you will find quite a few how-tos
I can't say that i know anything about incubating eggsbut your best honest bet is to ask a pet shop because a lot of them do their own breeding or are used to answering questions about that.sorry i could give you any straight answers
I have used a hovabator incubator to successfully incubate red ear eggs.
