1. here's 2 places home made ones I would shy away from until you have been able to test them for at least 1 month to keep the same temp and to figure how to keep the humidity at the correct level. people do it all the time but it does take some practice. you will pay a little more for shipping because it's from the U.S. I am unsure of any places that sell out of the U.K. the last web site is directions on how to make your own.
2. -put the eggs into a clear plastic shoebox filled halfway with moist vermiculite. -turn the eggs so that the pinkish-red embryo was facing up and sunk them into the vermiculite about halfway. -The shoebox (with holes in the lid) ( you need a lid because the babies might jump out), -you can use a heat lamp with thermometer on each side of the box, temps between 82 to 84 are fine. The temperature varies up and down only about half a degree. And so they sit. -If an egg starts to mold, remove it. -they should look healthy and firm. -Newly hatched dragons are left in the incubator for a period of 24 hours to allow the yolksac to be absorbed. Young bearded dragons will usually start to feed within 72 hours of hatching. hatching will take about 65 to 75 days.
