We use what is considered the "Suspension Method". It is generally believed that this method allows for the eggs to breath better. We prefer the suspension method as it ensures there will be plenty of moisture/humidity during the entire incubation process. Containers: 8.5 Qt Keep Box PN 10030361 Container Store We like these because of the depth that they provide and the lids have a sealing gasket built in. Our preference is to place four eggs in each container. No holes Medium: Water - This is the main component in our medium setup. We keep gallon containers of water in the breeder room during egg season. This allows the water to be within a few degrees of the freshly laid eggs. It's our opinion that too cold or too warm of water can shock or even cook the eggs if not managed properly. Other: Eggcrate/Light diffuser is a plastic piece with holes in it. This can be found at the local home improvement stores in the lighting section. Cut to size as needed wit
