    Incorporating the egg crate takes the "guess work" about getting the substrate:water ratio just right. With egg crate, as long as the eggs aren't touching the substrate, you can add way more water than you would without it to ensure there's plenty of humidity in the tub. Either way works, of course, but my thoughts are that substrate-less method is the way to go for the fool-proof factor (and the way that I personally go with).
