Need Help!

[buddha1200]

I bought a incubator from my local pet store about a week ago(when i set it up i noticed the fan didnt work)so i returned it for a refund,then i ordered another online this weekend(hasnt arrived yet)
Now my problem is that one of my females that i thought wasnt gravid(stopped pairing about 2 months ago) surprised me yesterday.

now if the incubator arrive and i set it up and make sure the temp and all are stable can i still remove the eggs or should i just let her incubate them herself.and if she incubate them herself what should i do,will they be ok in the tub the humidity is good(aways good sheds,and meter reads 70% right now)the coco husks keep the humidity up with no condensation.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'd get your new incubator set up and running properly then go a head and put the eggs in and in the mean time get some clean New Zealand sphagnum moss, get it damp, and put it in the tub with mom. GL and congrats on the clutch!

I would do this ^^^ But, while you're waiting on your incubator to arrive, do a search for "maternal incubation" here. There have been a few very in-depth threads about it...pretty good reading...
