That's great , are these her first?

Out of interest is it easy enough to keep the cork clean and mold free.
Dose it help maintain humidity?

Yes the cork stays clean and mold free. Since it's vertical the feces dont stick to it. I dont know if its holds humidity. Also keep a big box with dirt, sand and cocohumus mixed. I pour in 1-2 liters of water there once a week. It helps the humidity to stay high.

The cork tiles have got my ticker ticking, I'm presuming you attach the cork with aquarium silicone?

Thanks all!
My only problem now is that it seams like the incubator cant keep the temperature stable it flexes between 28.8-30.2 celsius. I'm using the ''herp nursery II'' any thoughts or ideas?
How stable were you other guys temps during incubation?
