I am not sure what I am seeing in your photos. If that is a fungus or mold growing it isn't good news. I have successfully treated snake eggs with powdered "athletes foot" powder. The eggs developed normally and healthy babies hatched. I only treated the affected areas of the egg.
Dried moss. I pushed mine slightly into the vermiculite and also put the moss around them. I wet the moss.Under good advice, I put mine in vermiculite then spaghnum moss around the eggs, kept as moist as possible.
I didn't have any moss growth. My moss was in the compact dry form that you add water too.
Was this moss of yours dry when you bought it or was it live moss? If it was live moss, did you soak it in boiling water before using it?
Bang goes that theory.Dried moss. I pushed mine slightly into the vermiculite and also put the moss around them. I wet the moss.
Personally I would do as Tom suggested, I would also take the moss out soak it for 10 minutes in scalding water, let it cool and replace. Keep an eye on things.I use this moss.

Probably will also put the vermiculite to boil. Is it okay for the vermiculite?Personally I would do as Tom suggested, I would also take the moss out soak it for 10 minutes in scalding water, let it cool and replace. Keep an eye on things.
I don't know if mold can and already has grown on your vermiculite.
I don't know. Do you have any spare vermiculite?Probably will also put the vermiculite to boil. Is it okay for the vermiculite?
Very little leftI don't know. Do you have any spare vermiculite?
This may be what is causing it, is your vermiculite ending up sodden?Is different ratio okay, because eventually in the incubator water could evaporate or the moisture could make the vermiculite wetter.
Yes. The water is not warm, but the temps in the incubator is warm.This may be what is causing it, is your vermiculite ending up sodden?
If I remember correctly you made a makeshift incubator, so your eggs are in a container above a warm pool of water. Is this correct?
