My bearded dragon eggs

22 14:10:33

Question
Hello, recently my female bearded dragon has laid eggs and i had made a incubator with he right tamps and moisture inside for the eggs to survive. The thing is that in the incubator there is soil, in the soil it is starting to grow small plants(just sprouting up). Could these hurt the eggs at all? They are random plants that i have notice like a tiny thread sprouting out.

Answer
Hello Joe,

Geez, that is odd.  What type of soil did you use for the substrate?  Did you put any vermiculite in with it, or not?  
Can you try to remove the little plants?  They could disturb the eggs, yes, if they come up on them or around them.
