JP,



Do you find that you have to add water to your container after a few weeks? What type of container are you using? I have rubbermaid containers but they do not seal very tight. The air movement in my incubator has a tendence to dry out the medium. I am trying the "no substrate method" for the first time. I am using bearded dragon eggs as a test. My ball pythons have not laid eggs as of this writing. I don't want to mess them up. Trying to work out all of the bugs.



PS: I am using 6 qt containers. I am using the egg crate as pictured in your post. I made on modification, I am using 1" PVC feet attached to the crate to keep it elevated (1/4" above the wet Perlite. This way if I tilt the container the eggs will not touch the wet medium.



Any suggestions/advice?



Dwayne
