Incubation question - help quick!!

What came first - the snake or the egg - ?
Well, in my case it's the eggs!! A friend of mine wants to give me her corn snake eggs to hatch out. She wasn't expecting them and I need to know what to do with them.
They are currently in the cage with the mother and moist sphagnum moss.
Obviously I'm desperately trying to figure this out before it's too late and I loose them.
What temp. do they need to be at? Humidity? etc.????
Please help!

put them in a box with a 1:1 ratio vermiculite and water. Cover it with press-in-seal. They can incubate in an open room, but 82* is ideal. If your ambients where you will keep there are upper 70s-82* or so, no incubator is needed. If you want to use an incubator, incubate them at 81*-82*

Perfect!

I keep my snake room in the low 80s so this might just work!

Thanks!

BH has it covered and sounds like you'll do just fine. Corn eggs don't need much and I've always incubated on the top shelf of my reptile display. The rising heat from lamps, etc, keeps it the correct temps. Just make sure that you have some air movement to keep it from spiking (I just leave the ceiling fan on in the room for this) and a thermometer just inside the egg tub to make sure it's staying the right temps. I use one of the digital Accurites from Wal-Mart as it tells me highs/lows and has a probe that can just be set inside. That way, you know everything is good.
