Oh, as long as they haven't been laying there dry for so long they are dented in from becoming too dry, you have no worries.



There are a HUGE number of ways to do this. You can simply put them high up on a shelf in a closet if it is close to the temps you want to target(79 to 81 or so). You can use a styrofoam cooler, a cupboard with a mild heat source, etc.. a big container filled with water, and an aquarium heater added to the bottom, etc...



Just experiment with a reliable thermometer BEFORE you put the eggs into the environment. You want to "KNOW" what things settle at before something can go horribly wrong. Just check every few hours to make sure things are stablized at the approx temps we discussed, and if they are still at this desired level after 24 hours, you will know things have leveled off and are basically constant.........and bingo!....done deal!



Just check on things every once in a while when you KNOW the right temp is established to "read" how the eggs are doing.



slightly moist, NOT WET is the key!





good luck!
