you can use..

You can use vermiculite or pearlite or a combination of the 2, 50/50 medium to water by weight not volume. In other words get a tupperware container and weigh it, then fill the container half full of vermiculite and weigh the vermiculite in it, whatever the weight of the vermiculite (write it down) is you add that much weight in water. (write down your total weight) and mix it very well. put your eggs into the vermiculite making sure they are 1/2 submerged in the medium and put on the lid (weigh it again)and put it in the incubator. check on them once a week or so, if the conainer starts dropping in weight it just means the water is evaporating and you just have to add a little water to keep the weight the same.
Good Luck
