Keep your temps between 28 & 30ºC. Over 31 might cause deformities. Make sure your humidity is round about 100%. What are you using as substrate?

Just keep an eye on the eggs. If they look dented they are too dry, and you need to up the humidity. You vermiculite might be a little bit too damp. If you pick some up and squeeze it, how much water comes out? It should just clump together. If you have a lot of water coming out, it must dry out a bit first. If it doesn't clump at all, you need to add a little bit of water.

You can spray the vermiculite, or add a little bit of water around the edges. Use water from the incubator if you can, so that it is the same temperature.
