Incubation medium. What do you use?

What medium do you use to incubate your ball python eggs?

Substraless incubation (light diffuser and perlite or vermiculite)

What I most often hear is vermiculite and perlite.

I actually use just water under light diffuser, works wonders.

Ditto. I do put a layer of plastic canvas on top of the light diffuser just in case a really tiny baby pops out, I don't want it falling through the light diffuser.

I breed primarily breed carpets, once they pip I put them on damp paper towels cause it would be my luck that they all drown!

I did full on substrate-less. Only water and egg grates/light diffusers

What are these light diffusers you all are talking about?

light diffuser and cypress actually. i mixed it with water and it helped balance the temps well.

You go to Home Depot and get it. Looks like thishttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/a2a6u9yp.jpg it's the white grid looking thing on the vermiculite. This is from 2 yrs ago, this last yr I did strictly water and it worked out great!
