Until they absorb the yoke sake then you can set them up on damp paper towel... I believe, My first clutch is due to hatch this week or next.

I set them up as soon as I find them out of their egg.

When they come out of the eggs, rinse them off in luke warm water, set them all up in the same box with hiding spots and a small water dish on moist paper towels and if the paper towel dries out lightly mist to assist in first shed until they shed. Then seperate them and set them up in individual boxes.
Thats how I do it and I am sure everyone does something different.

Once they get out of the eggs, I rinse them with some room temp water.
Then I separate them and wait for them to shed (I keep the substrate quite wet during that time), then they get fed.
But I also know people who wait until they shed to get them out of the incubator. Each their way I suppose.
