Ok most my females are neither swollen or going belly up so I think I'm doing pretty good..

When the eggs go into the sterilite with vermiculite do I put any air holes in the sterilite or should it be with plastic wrap air tight?????? I'm useing a minifridge incubator with a small fan..

When do you stop introducing males with the females?????

I keep my balls in a 41qt sterilite tub rack.. I use paper towels as subtrate.. Will this be ok to use for gravid females???????

Can't wait for some eggs!!!!
Goodluck to everyone this upcoming season!!!!!!!

I also use a minni fridge and use press and seal then the lid on top. I dont use any holes in tub. I open 1 time a week to refresh the air and check eggs.As for the paper towels I dont know, I use newspaper and it has already stuck too the eggs without any problems.
Hope this helps.

The reason I asked about the subtrate for the gravid females is I use paper towels as subtrate... The girls tend to bunch it up so I was wonderin if the eggs would be ok if they were layed directly on the bottom of the sterilite???????? I check them every single night before I go to bed and morning when I wake up without fail.

Nah,
You will be alright if she lays them on the tub serface as long as you are real carful peeling them off.
