Question:

What is the water:vermiculite ratio in incubation for red eared sliders?

I'm breeding both my females this year and am wondering what the ratio if for the water:vermiculite. I have heard that you multiply the vermiculite weight in grams by .8 and and add that answer to the weight of vermiculite, then add the water until you get to that number. So just say that the vermiculite was 40. Multiply this by .8 which is 32. so 40+32=72 grams. Then add the water until you get to 72 grams. Is this right?

You may not be able to find peat moss as some countries have put a ban on using it in garden compost. Vermiculite should be no problem it might just be a language thing.
