You need to keep those eggs in a sealed container with some airholes to
keep the moisture level up. I use either pre-punched deli cups or
tupperware with 1/4" holes. You don't need an incubator, just keep them
in the low 80s and you'll be all set. Sometimes you can put the
incubation container in with the adults.Julie,
This might sound like a stupid question, but when you put it in the
vermiculite, do you lay it down and cover it half way or do you stand it up
and cover it half way?
If you have plenty of pinholes I would not cut any more.
I will cut holes in the lid to be 1/4" -- it will be better than the
pin holes I have now.
It should be moist, but not wet. This is going to depend on how many airholes you have going. When you first set up your medium, you should check it every day until you figure out how often to spray it.
How often do I moisten the mixture?
I can identify with that! ;-)
I feel like a grandmother to the eggs. :-)Becky
