It says that you don't have to mix water or anything with it... It gives everything that they need and you don't have to worry about anything at all.. Has anybody ever tried it?  If you have, did it work and was it worth it?  Or is just using the perlite or whatever with water better off?  Here's the link where I saw it, it's at the bottom of the page.

I know the creators of HatchRite very well.   They sent me a big "breeder bag" a while back and I really like it so far. 

It has all the water and everything in it, with added polymers to keep the water from evaporating.  Just stir it up (right in the bag) and that's it.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Obviously, it's always good to pay attention to how much moisture your incubation medium has, but it's definitely a lot easier than mixing your own.

does it have a use-life? meaning, can i use it for multiple clutches, over and over again until it is a specific age? throw out and get fresh over 6 months? i've wanted to test it but can't see it being economic if i have to keep buying it every couple months. i havn't been able to get a steady answer about it. still very intriguing.

I think it can be re-hydrated... But the bag is resealable, so the stuff IN the bag lasts forever, I think.  We will probably try it out.
