Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

Right now all I have is a few huva bators, and I would like to build one out of a refrigerator. Anyone have any tips or pics of custom or store bought incubators that they use or have used?


Southern black racers that were incubated in a food tub I placed inside a small cooler with 2 inches of water in the bottom and 3inch heat tape with a thermostat underneath.

I use an small refrigerator, with a few holes drilled in the top and side. I use a heatmat or cable in the bottom, a large pan of water on top and the thermometer probe in the middle.
Works just fine Wink
I just open the door every morning to circulate the air.
For a short period of time, I used a small pump to circulate the air, but the constant humming drowe me crazy Very Happy

I also use the Jaeger FB80, which is a great incubator. But i'm not sure if it's available in the US...

Hey Trevor,

You do not need an incubator to incubate eggs. If you go to my website, at the link below, you will see how I incubate eggs. I incubate Corn, and King Snakes, as well as Cobra eggs, and I have great success.

Thanks, Happy to help. No reason to spend money and time when you don't need to.

I set the containers of eggs on the shelves of the small rack I use to house the baby cobras. At this time there are no baby cobras in that rack. So far, I have 26 N. kaouthia eggs incubating on a shelf of that rack. I keep that room at 80 - 82 degrees from floor to ceiling. The shelves that the eggs are incubating on are at 81 degrees.
