Answer
Hello Kayla, if you want it to hatch you can remove it. BUT do NOT turn it in any direction. The eggs can be removed but if they get turned a little bit the growing little lizard can drown inside. So mark the top of the egg with a marker. Place them in a container of moist (NOT wet) soil (not burried) and then clean the tank. Then place everything back as it was. You can place the eggs back or incubate them. Its your choice. I don't know why a site would say not to move or touch them. Some people prefer to leave the eggs alone and some take them away. Well  I hope they hatch and good luck.
