Step 5: Before placing the eggs into the container, you need to expect the eggs one by one to know which are fertile and slugs. There is a possibility that the eggs are stuck with each other, don’t attempt to remove it because the eggshells are fragile, just let it be to avoid breakage. Step 4: Remove the eggs gently and make sure to mark the part of the egg that is facing upwards so their position when you got it would be the same position when you place it in the container. Step 3: In removing the eggs from its mother, make sure to use a snake hook to move the snake away from its clutches, cover the snake’s head with a piece of cloth so it won’t be able to see that you are getting the eggs but before getting the eggs, make sure that the container where you will transfer the eggs is prepared with the substrate on it. Usually, pythons coiled their eggs within their bodies if this happens, don’t forcibly get their eggs because they might bite you aggressively. Step 2: Observe your python while it is laying eggs, you will notice a bump into their vent if there are still eggs to be laid, as soon as you no longer see a bulging part or bump, it means that they are finished laying. If you are to improvise your incubator, make sure that it is correctly assembled to ensure that the right amount of temperature and humidity level are retained. Step 1: Set up the incubator with heating equipment. There should be a transparent cover so you can check the eggs frequently without the need to open the container every now and then so that the temperature is conserved well. The eggs of a python are quite large compared to a chicken egg, and it will be half-buried into the medium so make sure to use an appropriate one. Make sure that the container is able to hold all the snake’s clutches, and it can fit well into the incubator.

Make sure that the medium is dry before placing the eggs in. You can mix these both substrates since perlite improves the airflow into around the eggs, and the vermiculite ensures that the eggs are dry to avoid egg rot. The ideal substrate would be perlite and vermiculite because these are good in humid and high temperatures. The eggs will be placed in a medium or substrate for incubation. Make sure to turn the incubator at least two weeks before the eggs are dispatched to ensure that the temperature is already stabilized. You can also improvise your home-made incubator as long as you can properly incorporate heating elements. The incubator to choose depends on your budget and number if expected clutches. There are different kinds of incubators nowadays that can be purchased in a farm supply shop.
