If that works the next step might be to start a yeast culture independent of 
microworms (ie.: say using dry yeast and sugar water). This to insure that 
there is no worm produced chemical or hormone etc. that is hatching the 
eggs.

-Yes, that really is worth a try......filter the worms out of an active
-yeast-microworm suspension and add that to your ready-to-hatch eggs, One
-minor clarification, I'm suggesting it's the CO2 from the metabolizing
-yeast and not the "little yeasties"  themselves. My method of force
-hatching consists of breathing into a little bottle with the eggs and
-capping it and carrying it in my pocket for 30 minutes. That does
-essentially the same thing.

-If it is the yeast from the worms that cause hatching - how about just
-adding yeast without worms? Has this been tried? It might make for an
-interesting experiment.
