:Hello gang!
:Was in Wal Mart today and found they had green moss, peat moss, and perlite. Vermiculite, which is what I hatched my corns in the last couple years was not to be found. Was wondering what if any experiences you guys have with any of these three mediums for incubation. My girl is getting close to egg laying time!

Buddy,
Over the years I have used vermiculite, sphagnum moss, peat moss, cypress mulch, and paper towels all with equally good results. What really matters is the temp. and humidity as I know you know! Good luck this year! John Meltzer
