Posted - 15/05/2012 : 07:30:36 different people prefer different things but perlite works perfectly for me. no maintenance and humidity in the 90's, might be worth a go for you |

maybe next year you should try using perlite in the egg boxes. i use it and once you prepare it as long as your egg boxes are reasonably air tight you won't have to add any water during the whole incubation period. the humidity in my egg boxes stays at 94+ for the whole incubation period
ok i was gonna try moss but what do u thinks better |

Posted - 13/05/2012 : 23:27:19 9 is good, some people have lost their whole clutch. Get the pictures up |

Posted - 13/05/2012 : 23:05:47 well ive ended up with 9. i just lefted the last two eggs and had a look at the coz of a slight colour change to find two punchure holes. and a fly come out the incubator. bearing in mind hatchlings cut out the top i opended them up one was half eaten. and the other had a head the took up half the egg. as i examined at the big head a part flapped over. and there it was a slot inside the head that looked just big enough for a magot to develop. im now wondering if that has any thing to do with the other half of the clutch that i lost. well thats a sad ending but the other 9 babies seem healthy. no kinked back and all seem active. a few of them are striking wen i check on them but now i can conentrate on these survivers and make sure they have the best start |
