Was she ever with a male? If not, just discard the eggs as they are 99.999999999999999999999999999% to be infertiles. If they could be fertile, mix 50:50 BY WEIGHT of perlite and water and incubate at 86*F for a starting point. Eggs dropped here and there are a sign she doesn't have a good nest spot....hard for you to be ready since she has only been in your care for a day.
