researching on google would be helpful.. try and get an incubator make sure you have a big enough tank, let your beardies sleep through this winter so they are ready for love making

hi i am going to use my brothers incubater he use it for cchicken eggs

 

[HAMISH_NOAH]

and how big do u recomend the tank to be

 

[reptilefan95]

the tank should be at least 4 foot by 2 foot by 2 foot, not sure on the incubator temps but it should be around 30 my guess, that tank is only big enough for two beardies

How many chicken eggs does the incubator hold? And if it's one that rotates, make sure u turn that option OFF or you'll kill the babies inside. Also, most healthy, fully grown females will lay from 25 - 30 eggs/clutch, and 3 clutches (that's with one mating, therefore it's advised to put the male in a seperate tank after one wk with the ladies - also he can exhaust them). They lay approx. every 3 wks, so u will need room for the first 2 clutches at least in your incubator. Hatch rate dependant on temps is from 7wks -9wks. Most keep their temps around 28C, I keep mine around the 30 - 33C, 24/7. You'll also need to buy vermiculite or something to sit the eggs in.
How old are your beardies? Should be around the 2 yr mark preferably. Get the females on to calcium sups as soon as they wake up - they eat a lot more when gravid, so you need to be able to accommodate that. The babies need to be housed, so u also need to be prepared for up to approx. 180 babies if u have 2 females, recommended no more than 10 babies in together, with the same requirements as adults re heat & UV. Each baby can eat anywhere from 30 - 70 baby woodies/crickets per day, so also add this into the equation, & are best fed 2-3 times/day.
If you can cope with the above, happy breeding!
