sorry i didnt notice you replied and all the answers i got didnt really answer my question i was asking how moist the siol should be and how to keep it moist, and if i should spray with water or water drops around them. and yes some eggs have been denting witch is why i need to know what to do fast befor they all start denting in

Do not spray the eggs.. they can drown. What you do is get a dropper and put some drops in the corners every so often (i did it 3 times for the total incubation time).
If you had the proper mix of vermiculite and water, you should be fine with what I mentioned before. If not, please explain exactly what you did.

ok so how i have 54 eggs ina 12 by 12 plastic square box with a type of soil the pet store told me would work for the eggs and 3 small holes on the lit at 29 degrees celsius day time and 23 degrees night time, and the soil was moist when i put the eggs in but i havent put any drops around them since my chameleon laid them witch was last night, so would puting drops around the eggs once every 2 months be okay ?

I have no idea what to say now. You aren't using vermiculite...you're using soil...so I don't know how you are ever going to keep it evenly moist. Is it called hatchrite??

You are saying that you are going to keep them at 84F during the day even though you have been told its too hot...and that it should be more like 74F.

yes its a type of soil but its not the soil used for plants they told me its a specific kind for eggs but i dont remember the name sorry, ok so would i be fine if i keep it at 74f day and night ?
