incubator egg box poll

[don15681]

wow this was a great poll I and replies I really am liking the light diffuser over the vermiculate. Here is the question to that do I still add only enough water so it clumps and don't drip or can I add more since no eggs will touch the substrate or water? Thus I can put a 1/4 hole in front and back and never need to air it out or worry about humidity issues?

if you're using perlite, you can add a lot of water.

even with the substrate being very wet, I still used glad press n seal. checked eggs once a week. this lets fresh air in. and about the last two weeks, I open a tiny hole in one corner to let air in when the eggs need it the most.
