I have 5 ball python eggs suprised but not totally unexpected, but I had to run get a Hobavator. My question is about using lids on the tupperware containers the eggs are in? The containers are only like 2 inches deep, thats the only ones I have that will fit... Should I use lids with them or not? I am using vermiculite substrate moistened, not soaked and running my incubator now to make sure my temps are correct. Oh BTW how long can I wait before removing the eggs from the snake? I want to let me incubator settle, but I dont want to wait too long..

Any help would be great! Thanks
