Why is this called the no substrate method? You are still using substrate...just raising the eggs above it. This should be called the "No Contact Method". The name "no substrate" is misleading. I use the same method and still have some evaporation during incubation. I've had to add water at times to the egg box to remoisten. I just started using press and seal between the lid and the box and it has reduced the evaporation greatly. I have my first clutch with the press and seal hatching in a week and have not added any water.
