You dont need an incubator for crestie eggs if your home is 75-79 F room temp.
:D thats the problem its like 65-80 in the reptile room(the tanks keep their heat more constant) but if i set up and incubator in my room th room is like 60 constant so id rather just setup an incubator
 
Ok, take the eggs and put them in a tuperware container with some moist vermiculite. Poke a few air holes in the top. Place the tub with the eggs back in the crested tank. Check the temp inside the tub with a temperature probe and adjust it's placement in the tank until you find the desired temp.

thats a good idea but im makeing a preemptive incubator i dont have eggs yet;)
 
Just be careful temps dont go into the 80's on the high to medium end because they babies will hatch out faster, but smaller which may cause improper development.
