Science would go something like this; find the parameters of an egg ( highest temperature it will hatch and the lowest temperature it will hatch, flood some and dry some out (find the parameters of an egg) study why an egg in the wild has success with less than ideal conditions floods and high/low temp. Take chances since, egg temp fluctuates in the wild that should be one of the parameters we should test? The argument would be why allow some to perish and my argument if you know why they perish you will know the parameters in which you work. By sacrificing a few you might have a knowledge base that will allow for un-paralleled success in the long run. I think too often people are scared to think for themselves and common sense is lacking. If an egg is flooded on the bottom where there is no air space will it parish? What is the pH in a burrow where the eggs are laid? Is it an old rodent nest with rodent pee in the soil what would the pH be? How much calcium is in a wild egg verses a domestic egg? Guess I could do what works or what everyone else does but how much fun is that?
