Hi all, seen as quite a few of us have camera's and seem happy posting up pics, i would like to start a thread on what you guys are using for egg box's (for royal eggs) i picked up some new food box's the other day but now i'm thinking they may be too shallow. I'll post some pics of mine in a bit and if you guys could post what your using and approximate dimensions then we can all get a feel for each others techniques.
Cheers
Andy  |

ok here are the pics, excuse the state of the incubator i have built it new for this season and is in a functional not showoffable condition!
The verm is just been stored in there at the moment it's not mixed the size of the box is approx 12" x 12" and 4" deep it's the depth i'm a bit concerned about, what do you think and what are you using?
