Question Incubating in water??

I read an information sheet today which described the author's attempts to breed dragons. They had a rather unorthodox method of incubating the eggs, whereby they placed the tub of vermiculite containing the eggs into a large fishtank and allowed it to float there. Using an aquarium heater, they maintained the temperature of the water.

Has anyone tried this method? The main drawback I can see is the risk of babies hatching and then jumping out of the vermiculite tub and drowning. I'm sure there's a simple solution. I just thought the whole idea was quite fascinating.

Thoughts?
