 Anole Incubater

Ok so my question is, My female green anole is pregnant and i want to know how to make an anole incubater so i can actually try and save some of the eggs. I would like to know what temperature the eggs need to be during the day and during the night and i would also like to know the type of humidity level and how i would get the eggs inside the incubater or if i put the incubater "home made" incubater in the tank so they can lay their eggs inside it. And if its not the incubater, im referring to those like topperware thingies i see people in youtube put their eggs inside so they can incubate properly.

 Anole Incubater

Get a large deli dish (with a top) and fill it 3/4 full of Vermiculite which you can get at most any garden center. Add water until it is moist but not wet (about 14:1 ratio). Make a depression with your thumb for each egg. The eggs should be removed from the enclosure carefully without turning them from their original position. Put one in each depression and cover it lightly with Vermiculite. Punch holes in the top of the deli dish for ventilation. Keep the temperature at a constant 85 degrees and 70% humidity and they will hatch in about 35 days. Heat can be supplies with a small undertank heater or a simple light bulb.
