I personally dont have the money to spend $500 on an incubator. Answers are always appreciated. Im just trying to see what EVERYONE thinks? Yes My leopard gecko setup is straight perlite in a small rubbermaid container. 1gram of perlite to .8grams water. Hvae used it for a while never a problem! My container just sits in my snake room though and the temp happens to be perfect. The Perlite doesnt dry up and because of the high humidity the eggs absorbe from the air to. If you let the perlite sit and it feels dry to the touch, squeeze it between you fingers and it will still feel moist. Im just seeing what everyone does. I might grab two eggs and use two different methods on them. Just to see what works best. I guess it comes down to if you have your incubator calibrated right along with your humidity
