Default Wierd way to incubate

I used to know a bloke that incubated his burm eggs by putting them in a black bin liner with compost in and leaving them in his airing cupboard. He used to have a really good hatch rate too. Never tried it myself but it seemed to work for him. Anyone else tried anything out of the norm to hatch there egg's?

If it works then it's all good. What kind of hatch rate do you get that way?

What I meant by "seeing the OP" was about TBUK not his content. There was some uh.....trouble.....people owed money all after the cancellation of the Exeter show last year and he doesn't come here no more.
