Incubation Advice

This is the first year my male THHerc has been in with my three ladies. A couple of days ago I found 2 eggs that Evie had laid on the top of the soil. Unfortunatley they were damaged as others had stepped on them. I wasn't expecting eggs so quickly but am really pleased they were laid but sad I missed the chance to incubate. I didn't see any of the usual signs to look out for. Anyway I'll be ready nexty time! They are indoors at the min because the weather here is really lousy (cold and wet) and the eggs were laid indoors. I've made a couple of mounds of deeper soil near the heat / uv lamp incase any more are laid. Is there anything else I need to do? Also I've been looking at incubators -the Zoomed reptibator was one I liked the look of. Does anyone use this and will it be ok? I might not get anything else this year but keeping my fingers crossed!
Thanks
