well u should incubate them in an incubator of course you need to have the substrate for the eggs be damp vermiculite or whatever, that is what i use though. if you want females you incubate at about 82 degrees. if you want males you incubate at aboout 92 degrees. if you want a mix of male/females you incubate at about 85 degrees. you should really read up on the internet. whatever you do you better be ready and hurry. also remember never rotate an egg because it will kill it. make sure it stays in the same position it was layed. good luck!

Actually, rotating the eggs isn't a concern during the first two wks. See Ron Tremper's new book...
