I was just wondering what you guys use to incubate eggs in? As hopefully if my cresties breed I will be getting some eggs to incubate.

Perlite for Rachs.

[Phil1988]

Thanks for the quick replies. Are there any reasons that you choose what you do or not?

[ToonTomH]

I use a mixture of them both, I think I've already told you that though? I don't really have a reason for this, but on a few websites I saw that they use Vermiculite, others they use Perlite, then I saw a few that use both, so I thought I'd do that.

And it seems to have worked I think any of the 2/3 options would be fine though. Just as long as you keep it moist (But not too moist).

Yeah you did tell me, that's when I thought of starting this thread. Might help others choose which to use.

I use vermiculite, purely because it was the only thing I could find in my local garden center.
