    Re: Few questions about substrateless incubating.

    1. Is it ok, to use vermiculite or it's bette to use perlite?
    Either one is fine
    2. Why do you cover the top with foil, before putting the cover on the box?
    I never have used anything to seal.
    3. How do you prevent the condensation from dropping on the eggs (since it's pretty high humidity inside the box)?
    I never had that issue a little condensation may buildup on the sides but should not on the top.

    Here is my recipe

    (1) 7 quarts Tub
    (6) cups of vermiculite
    (4) Cups of water
    Egg crate

    And there you go



    Stress free method that works every time.
