hatch rite?

Mike and I had a nice chat at the Taylor show with the Hulse's about this product (they sell it at their table there). They were both very impressed with it, gave us a lot of good info and we're likely going to go with it this year. Seems like a good product especially for us newcomers in our first breeding seasons with our snakes.

I am thinking of getting that.. I had a bad year last season with eggs that died.. I think it was too moist but it could have been genetics; who knows..? But I don't feel comfortable mixing stuff when this much is at stake so I am getting some of that. I saw it on Alex Hue's site and I will probably order from him.

I think I'm going to try it this year. Im not sure that I'm confident in getting the mixture right, or maybe I'll just get someone to make up some boxes for me LOL

I'm probably just making a mountain out of a molehill though LOL

You need some pointers, buddy? I can make a mean protein shake so vermiculite and water are no problemo!

Seriously, it is easy to mix up vermiculite and water. I haven't seen this product and don't know a thing about it but it sounds ok.

Next year will be my first breeding experience and I'll be useing it. They were giving free sample bags in daytona and I picked one up.

It's perlite based.

I picked up a free bag at Tinley, haven't tried it yet. Several of the bigger breeders were talking about how they've switched to it.

I hope to try it this year. I got my fridge gutted today and my helix on the way this week


Just need to order some more flexwatt to finish it up.

Though I would like to use the perlite eventually instead of this stuff. I went to home depot today to price out stuff for my reptile room and I checked the garden section and found perlite. It was $4 for 8 qt.
