Roast in a 325 degree F oven for 15 to 20 minutes. The seeds will not change much in color, but will crunch when done. A note about salt: We use kosher salt. If you donât have it on hand, keep this in mind: 1 teaspoon fine sea or table salt = about 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt.
Step 3 â Incubate. It takes 21 days on average for an egg to hatch once incubation begins. Before placing the eggs inside, turn on the heat source and measure the temperature and humidity over a 24-hour period, making adjustments as necessary to create the optimal environment.
When the babies are first born, they will sink to the bottom but as they consume the egg sac, they will begin to swim on their own. When they do that, take daddy out and give him a nice rest and recouperation in a clean tank. It takes 2-3 days (depend on how warm the tank is) days for eggs to hatch.
