Room temp, and soild verbalite should work in hatching them. Can i get a 2nd opinion? Should i get an incubater for future hatchlings? Thank you everyone for your help

Answer:

The next time you post an answer, please use spell check. It will make it a lot easier for people to read and understand your question. The egg laying substrate you need is called vermiculite. Room temperature is not high enough for the eggs, the temp needs to be 82-84F and humidity levels must remain high. An incubator by far is needed if you plan on breeding any type of lizard. It takes the guess work out of doing it the homemade way. Never turn the eggs at all, always keep them in the position they were laid. Take a felt tip marker and mark the upside so you know how to always place them back if you need to move them. If you rotate them you will kill the embryo inside. Please google bearded dragon eggs before you end up killing your eggs. You should have done research before the mating attempt even took place. You are an irresponsible breeder, and an inexperienced one at that.
