Jonny,
This is a good topic. Nice set up and thanks for liking tge SIM containers.

You are not using holes but are opening up the containers every day or so. That will keep pressure from building up and causing your eggs to pop. I add holes because I do not like to mess with eggs until they hatch so it is better for me to just add a few holes.

I notice all of my eggs dimple a few hours before they hatch but never more than that. I have also noticed that since using the SIM container that even species like pythons and other colubrids whos eggs normally dent days before hatching do not do so in the SIM container. They also start to dent only hours before hatching.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
