...I had thoughts that YES, if a female held eggs longer than normal...they'd hatch faster....I don't think it works that way though...



...pack vermic around eggs....would that not make using the no substrate method pointless?...just a thought...

(I used eggs in vermic method for 20 years )....they all work...



moss...tried it alot...got mold alot....I finally used cloth rags for years....on ball eggs....I used like cotton cloth rags...folded into like 4 to 6 layers...wetted , squeezed out...and layed on the tops of piles of eggs...piled eggs only , and only when needed....



....tried plastic wrap once....that method will kill eggs...trust me....(oops)...



....early....you know eggs take from 52 days to 68 days...so...you'll do fine I assume....just watch them ...
