I tried this method this year with very good success. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure your "grate" is firmly seated in the box & level or put some PVC "feet" under the grate. Use 1" pvc cut into lenghts to keep the grate out of the substrate. I had one grate shift & the egg absorbed water. It was a very full egg. It hatched fine even with the water. Also you may want to cut some strips of grating to place between the eggs if they are seperated. It will help to keep them from rolling if you are removing them from the incubator for inspection.
