Vermiculite is widely used as an incubation medium due to its ability to retain high levels of moisture while maintaining a stable environment. Its structure helps support consistent humidity levels, making it ideal for egg incubation setups.

In addition to incubation use, vermiculite can also be used as a substrate for small invertebrates that require higher humidity conditions.

The material does not easily decompose or go mouldy, making it a reliable and long-lasting option for both incubation and substrate use.

For more natural and varied setups, vermiculite can be mixed with other substrates such as coir or soil to improve texture and support burrowing behaviour.

Directions for Use

Moisten to the desired level when using as a substrate for invertebrates or for incubation purposes. Adjust moisture levels as required to maintain appropriate humidity. For mixed substrates, combine with coir or soil to create a more structured and natural environment.
