BTW, are you home to grab the eggs and put them in an eggbox in the incubator? The nest box provides a protected area where the basking lamps will not immediately dry out the eggs. Some just drop the eggs wherever, as in the case of Scot's chuck, Arizona, in the previous posts, but you must let the laying take place without interference and then be there to gingerly pick them up--try not to drop or tilt them, use your thumb to make an impression in the eggbox vermiculite and cover up to 2/3 of the egg. I suppose everyone has their ownh "recipe". LOL
