Question:

My blue belly lizard just laid eggs. i took them & placed them in an incubator with dirty on top of them?

Will they be okay the mom pushed them around a little bit. There is 8 egg what can I do to help them live ?

Answer:

Get some vermiculite from a local reptile shop and mix it with water so that when you squeeze it it holds its shape but no water comes out and then put this mixture into a tupperware container which has small air holes cut into it for air circulation. Dig small holes for the eggs this will make it so they wont roll around. This is very important, the eggs need to be undisturbed and kept the same way the mother layed them. Keep the temperature at 84-85 degrees with a humidity of around 80%. The incubation period usually runs around 45-60 days roughly.
