Default First eggs

Last night my female layed a pair of eggs on one of the branches. they are white and hard. When i went in she was very protective of them. Is there any good way to tell if they are fertile or not?

And is it good to incubate them in the cage, because the piece of wood is to big to put into an incubator.

Edit: i shined a light through the eggs and they have no visual vains. But since they were just layed last night is there a chance the vains havnt developed yet, and they are fertile?

Update: the male pays no attention to the eggs, infact he avoids the female, who is protecting them

You can incubate them right in the cage. Try taping a dixie cup or something over them to keep them safe if you want. Treat them as if fertile until they collapse or go rotten.
