Yes the fan can make the eggs and the vermiculite dry out more quickly. You're going to be battling that constantly if you don't cover the eggs I have 'still air' incubators, and still cover the eggs loosely: that way there is air exchange, but humidity is retained too.
I have the eggs (in vermiculite)in those 'Gladware' type containers that come with a lid. Recycled margarine tubs, coolwhip tubs, cottage cheese tubs, all would work fine.
Don't cover them tightly: cling wrap is not ideal because it can sag and come in contact with the eggs, and you can accidently jostle the eggs if you have to peel it off should it adhere to the container.
