I have not bred my BD's yet (next season hopefully!) but I have been looking into what is required. I think you may have a problem with your clutch as the eggs have not been layed into any material that can 1. help maintain temperature, 2. maintain humidity and 3. stop them rolling about. As far as I know, moving a reptile egg from its originally laid position carries a high risk of the umbilical cord dislodging from the yolk sac, thus causing death to the embryo. This is the reason that a lay bin with sand is used. It allows the BD to dig a nest and lay into the sand. You then need to carefully dig them out and place in vermiculite in a incubator.
I think you should talk to a breader and find out more info rapid.
Hope they are OK.
