I agree with Mr Mike, I have been raising and breeding Ball for about 4 or 5 yrs now and I tried to use the Vermiculite and that kind of thing the first year. To wet, to dry. I sure didnt have the hang of it and seemed to ruin several eggs that first hatch. Well, Im a pretty quick learner so I decided to do exactly the same setup that Mike has posted the picture of. Only difference is that I use a seperate 6 qt egg box for each clutch. If you are not sure and are questioning how to use the Verm, Hatchrite, Perlite kind of thing I think you would be very pleased with the results of it. After you have things set up like he does all you need to do is make sure to keep whatever you use under the light grating wet. Just dont put in to much water where it will come up and touch the eggs... That is a great way to incubate and other than a bad egg or two that would have spoiled no matter how you incubated them I have not lost a single egg. Try it, You'll like it. Jay
