Is there a lid on the egg box? Try not to open it at all if possible. Hopefully someone will come along with more advice.

Yes there is a lid... I even put some moist moss around the eggs but not touching them. The two eggs collapsing most were the ones she had rolled out, but when I candled them they had veins. My female lesser laid 4 big eggs on the 17th and other then one egg having a egg window they all look as good as when she laid them. But this normal females eggs were half the size of the lessers eggs and none of them were stuck together, not even the two she had coiled up. But all 4 have veins so I incubated them all when I found them at 3:30 p.m. and they already started collapsing not even 4 hours later!!!!

Just give them a day and see how they look, I reckon. Not all eggs are destined to hatch, veins or no. Viable eggs can take a beating so try not to worry too much. So long as the perlite is mixed right you are already doing everything possible for those eggs. The only thing to do now is observe and learn from the experience.

Were the eggs found in the morning or this evening. Did they look deflated before they went into tub? I had one girl lay last year and the eggs sat in a dry tub for 2 or 3 days. They were slightly deflated like yours. A day in the incubator (24hours) and they fluffed right back up. If the humidity is right and they are destined to hatch they will be OK. You can also try using press n seal over the tub

I like to seal my egg boxes tight with Press'n seal wrap
You really don't need ANY ventilation in the box at all

The eggs shouldn't look like that in 2 days even with the worst of set ups.

Press-n-seal for sure and definitely don't open anything up unless you absolutely have to. That was my mistake early on. Good luck!

Also, if possible try to get the eggs out of the incubation medium and onto a diffuser. Is that hatch rite you are using?
Stay in peace and not pieces.
