Do Not Panic. You can move the eggs without killing them. If you do move them into a better container with vermiculite, make sure that you do not turn the eggs and place them in vermiculite that is not too damp. You want the vermiculite to barely cling together when you add water. Do not bury the eggs but nestle them down into the vermiculite so they do not roll around. Keep an eye on them, if they go bad they will turn color, collapse, or mold up. If so remove them.

Good luck.
