Default Hatchrite or Repashy

Would one work better than the other for hatching crestie eggs? I've had awesome results with Leos using hatchrite, but I know Repashy makes products especially for cresties though...and cresties have different needs than leos.

I've used superhatch for my Rhacs for the last 2 years; I like it because when the humidity level drops it changes to a dull coloring. I think it really comes down to personal preference and what you feel comfortable using. The only thing I really watch when incubating are the temps & humidity....everything else is pretty much a no brainer.

hell i've had cresties hatch out in tank so it's not a big deal about the hatching media, for me though i just end up using vermiculite as it's cheap. i have used the Repashy for my leos though and it's alright don't really have an opinion on it.

I think it's personal preference, but for me starting out with Superhatch I don't feel the need to switch to Hatchrite, which is pre-moistened perlite. People have different experiences with each product so use whatever works best for you!
