>>I am about to have some rat snakes eggs drop, and I was interested in knowing what medium folks have used in here for their eggs. I have used potting soil in the past with a lot of success, but I am considering vermiculite and perlite as well.

>>Anyone have an opinion? Thanks, Alex



a lot of people lean more towards vermiculite but I still prefer sphagnum moss. easier for me to judge moisture levels with a quick glance. Its what I'm used to.
