People really need to keep an eye on Perlite if their incubator has a lot of air circulation. The eggs can dry out quickly. BG usually uses a mix of both Perlite and Vermiculite . BG also usually steals(not really) big bags of it from Pete Kahl when he visits. He finds monster bags of it somewhere.
