I first like to give duanes a big thanks for sharing this great little hatchery. I thought I share this video with anyone interested.

I just got one of these for Christmas as an activity to do with the kids. It was easy and simple. My only question is do you keep light on it for 24 to 48 hours? I did the first day and night as per the instructions but it seems unnecessary unless I'm missing something. Won't they still hatch in the dark and you can turn the light on like half an hour before pulling the collection cup?

I don't use light only use light if I want to attract more to the collection basket. I really enjoy this product thanks again duanes for introducing this wonderful product.

I haven't used any artificial light either.

After the dish, appears used up, I just toss the contents into something that hald water in the yard

And usually end up with plenty of adluts.
