lets see if I can remember all the questions.
You should get eggs about two weeks after the post-breeding shed (by the female)
No, the female will not incubate the eggs. You need to either buy or make an incubator. You can buy one at reptilesupply.com or lllreptiles.com for about $40 s/h
You need to put a lay box in with the female. You can use a shoebox (sterilite container) with a hole in the lid. Fill half way with moist (not soaking wet) vermiculite.
the number of eggs depends on the size/age of the female and the fertility of the male. anywhere from 4 eggs, up to 20(round about) in one clutch.
feed the female as much as she will take and keep down, until she gets bigger. When the eggs start to develop, they take up most of the room, so smaller feed should be offered.
Hope this helps
