Exclamation Golden Gecko Eggs... HELP!

I've had my goldies for 3 years and she had laid about 6 eggs since i've had her, all of which have been broken and hollow, But...

I've just looked in and finally there are two little eggs stuck to artifical rock face at the back (I have an exo terra terrarium)... Normally when I knew she was due to lay, I would put tissue around the place so I could scoop them up but obviously I cant now...

What do I do now? Should I attempt to move them?
I doubt the will be fertile because shes not very healthy recently, but just incase, how long will they take to hatch?
And, I've heard something about "candeling"... Can I not do that if they are stuck to the wall?
Bascially, I need to know everything.
Oh, and if anyone has ever had goldie eggs before, please can you describe what they should look like, (like shape, size, and how close they should be next to eachother)... So i can compare with mine?...

Thanks
Goldie xx

Just leave them alone and let them incubate in the cage. Unless you know for a fact that they are not fertile treat them like they are.

What about when I'm misting? Will they become damaged if wet?
Should I try and avoid them when misting or just do it normally?

Try not to soak the eggs but a little over spray wont hurt the eggs.
