But does yours raise the temperature to accelerate embryonic growth rate?
If you hang out long enough, you'll see we have a group of KISS'ers. (Keep It Simple Stupid).

It's like both sides of the political line, one believes in old, tried, and true ideas and the other side wishes to progress through trial and error.

But, the questions we need to ask, and the ones that will determine what methods we use to incubate (or to not) are as follows:

1. Does creating the same environment as the Ootheca's home region cause the Ooths to have better hatch rates?

2. Does increasing heat/temp truly speed up the hatching and if so at what cost to the number hatched? Is there a tradeoff? (Example: Hot= 1 month, 100 hatch // Room Temp = 2 Months, 125 hatch)

3. If higher temps truly do speed up the hatch process, does this work on ALL species or just tropical/hot climate species?

Bottom line is, are the results worth the effort?
