It would be a shame to have this baby reach the days before a successful hatch, only to die to some infection.
Mike,
Sorry that I am joining this thread a bit late. Just so you know...I have found the incubation period for Spider Geckos to range from around 55 to 80 days. I have had eggs go longer than 80 days, but sometimes those hatchlings seem to be a bit weaker.
You could probably keep the hatchling in the incubator with humidity (I wouldn't advise keeping it actually wet in the cup) or you could place it in a small critter keeper with an undertank heater. Julie's suggestion to use a 16 ounce deli cup with water droplets sounds like a good idea, too. Although these geckos do require adequate hydration, they are from a relatively dry environment. In the past, I have had some success "jump-starting" weaker hatchlings by touching the nose (mouth) with the smallest amount of Emeraid (or Pedialyte)....and sometimes I have even used the smallest amount of diluted Neo-Cal. You can offer it water the in the same way.
Keep us posted!
Stacy
