doing a search brought up waaaaaaay too many unrelated topics, so I will ask for you to add whatever info you can. I have one clutch of brooks eggs, and I want to incubate them properly. I have them in a shoebox (plastic), with the sphagum mass they were laid in. The moss is damp, but not wet. I sealed the holes in the shoebox. The eggs are atop the moss, with a sprinkling of moss over the top of them. I have the shoebox on the top shelf of a closet where temps should be fine for Brooks. My questions are as such:

1) I have perlite. should I remove the moss and use perlite instead, or a mix of both, or leave them as is?

2)do I cover them at all?

3) can anyone supply a pic of their incubation setup?
