ideally when they've regained the weight that being gravid has drained from them, a second clutch this year is possible providing she's up to it physically

usually they have a post-lay shed shortly after laying as they return to their normal size. as she's new to you you probably won't know what her usual weight is unless you got her from a very good shop, do you know how old she is? might be worth just feeding her up gently and waiting till next year to breed.

just sit tight with the eggs at about 28-30*C for about 60 days........
if the eggs dimple in then increase the humidity, by adding warm water to the incubation medium ideally rather than misting as this can cause drastic cooling and shock the babies

You need to wait a week because they will still be absorbing their egg sacks so don't need food.

They should shed after 1 week and most people start to feed after this shed

kaz is spot-on, offer food after the post natal shed, which will occur between 5 and 7 days of age.
