Helps!! Iguana Eggs (how to incubate)?

My Iguana started laying her eggs today right now and its too late to go to a store to get an incubator for them so I want to make one except I can‘t find any good tutorials. At homedepo I could only find perlit not Vermiculite and currently I have them in a glad plastic container with the perlit and a 100watt light on top. and I put a baking aluminum tray under it with water. but not sure if the glad container should be closed top or open or be closed and have holes??? And is there a better way to set it up?

Answer:

Just keep them in a box around the same temp as it was when they where layed (unless its really cold where you are like it is in Colorado -.- ) with some holes. But before you pick them up make a mark on the side thats up right now, If you spin the egg it'll die. Then just go to petsmart or something and get a good incubator tomarrow. Homemade ones usally don't work and you never see baby iggys. ]: Make sure to line up homes before they hatch, you don't want (or atleast I don't even though I love iggys, just to many) 72 more or less little iggys running around well you try to find them homes.
