 Perlite???

Will Perlite work for the eggs guys, if you can’t get anything else your supposed to have? And how wet should it be I don’t see any moister in the egg container?

A lot of people use a mixture of vermiculite and perlite for eggs, so plain perlite should probably be fine. Water the perlite with as much water as it will easily absorb.

Ok, it don’t seem to hold water or soak into it or anything, Walmart didn’t have anything but Perlite, and Lowes was closed we went at like 3am to get it and it’s over an hour drive but I’m trying to get back to lowes to get the vermiculite.

We prefer straight vermiculite. Have seen perlite stick to eggs and babies like glue. Im not sure if it was the brand we tried or perlite in general but we wont use it. -Jay
