Danni Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Just curious as to what eggs exactly you are putting in the incubator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 I have not done water dragons but have done turtles and beardies with just moist vermiculite. I think there are holes in the bottom that would allow the water out. I took out the mesh and put the vermiculite in the bottom. Just keep it moist.

repto Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 i just have an icecream container or click clack container in there with damp vermiculite,eggs half burried and a damp paper towel over the eggs.You can tell by the feel of the paper if its drying out or getting wetter.Check once a week and remove lid to let a bit of fresh air in for eggs.I once had a small hole with a temp probe poking in right down to the eggs for accurate temp in the container rather than incubator(this is normally different.Better slightly drier than wetter and you can make it moister as you go if you need to,much harder to dry them out if it gets too wet.
