I got about 3" to 3.5" of water in it with a brick the egg box has holes close to bottom and just out of the water and sand and moss mix damp the 10 eggs are 2" apart and cover so not to touch the eggs in the water is a heater and pump the top of tank is cover with a light above it to help with heat the temp. is 84 to 86 degrees make a comment to what I have done Right or WRONG

looks a *little humid to me, but im not sure if that is how they should be incubated or not. As long as the temp stays at a general constant, i think otherwize you are ok.

I was told it would be that way that the reason to cover the egg box and drill holes near the the bottom of the box but it seem to be clearing up some thanks for some input I hope to get more because this is the frist time I have done this I got lady Di about 7 to 8 weeks ago she was in a tank with a male no one knew she had a good time I was told the eggs look good so maybe I will have little dragons running around so far things looks right

Looks good from what I've heard...although I haven't had the chance to do it yet myself. One thing I would suggest from what I have heard is to place a few sticks in the water when it gets closer to hatching time incase you somehow have an escapee. Hopefully if he does escape he will have something to float on.

I DO PLAN ON PUTTING SOME STUFF FOR THEM TO GET ON BUT I AM HOPING TO BE ABLE TO MOVE THEM TO ANOTHER TANK AS THEY HATCH

Good idea. I was suggesting that incase they hatch when you are not around. Good luck with the clutch!

I don't have any answers for you but I would like to applaud your concern for what IS the right temp/humidity and I'm sure you'll be an authority soon on such matters.
