How has your first Baby Warm incubator helped you?
I rehabilitate many animals per year. My most common rehab patients are neonate opossum. This year I raised over 90 and these incubators are a life saver! They provide even heat and humidity which is essential for neonate opossums. I have also used them for cottontail, bats, raccoons, and squirrels.
How will this additional incubator help?
As I am based in a rural community I often have to transport babies long distances, often taking 45 min. – 1 hour. This incubator will allow me to more quickly rewarm babies than the use of a heating pad. Neonate opossums are particularly difficult to rewarm once they get cold. Heating pad can help but can not provide an overall warm environment which is so important to saving these fragile babies.
