    Eggs gone bad?

    When I do substrateless (which is for every clutch) I incubate on a little but of vermiculite with to a and tons of water. No measuring at all. I use so much water that if you tip the bin slightly you can see the water run to the opposite side. I don't use any vent holes.

    I don't however use press n seal.

    Exactly like I do, the "substrate" is only there to stop water from sloshing on the eggs.
    There is no need for press n seal if you are doing substrateless imo

    It's my first clutch, so I guess some trial and error here. I would hate to lose them all. Well, here's hoping.
