Looks like a peat moss substrate to me there Jeff.

Granted, just because the eggs aren't sitting directly on it, technically you could say that you don't use a 'SUB' strate. But you still need SOMETHING to hold the moisture. preferably something that has a large surface area thereby increasing evaporation so that the eggs are constantly in a high humidity environment without actually being in contact with liquid water.
