I incubate mine between 77,5 (26°C)during the day and 66 (19°C) at night and have good results with that. With these incubation temperatures they hatch afther 90 to 120 days.

I have incubated at different temperature in the past. Now I keep them at 24 degrees Celsius and so far doing fine. I don't think you will any problems with the fluctuating temperature. Keep the eggs a little bit moist, but not wet

incubation time is similar to that of Peter. I usely keep the eggs directly on the vermiculite substrate.
