Or first attempt at breeding leopard geckos!
First clutch of 2 eggs July 1.
I have put them in a tupperware container 2/3 full of perlite dampened, which is sitting on top of bricks in a 10 gallon aquariumwhioch has 3 inches of water and a submersible heater .
temp seems to be holding in the container at 82deg, does the container need a cover. As I have a cover on the aquarium so there seems to be plenty of humidity.
Or is the cover neccessary when it is close to hatching time so the hatchlings don't crawl out and drown.

How deep is the container? If there is any chance that they can get out, then yes, definitely cover them.
