First Red Eyed Crocodile Skink Egg!

I just found today in my crocodile skink tank a small egg. I am not sure how long it's been there, but at most a couple of days. I am very excited as this is the first time my pair has laid an egg.

I wanted to ask from those who have experience with crocodile skink eggs, should I remove the egg and put into an incubator or allow the egg to stay in the enclosure with the parents?
If I should remove the egg and put into a incubator what temperature should I be setting the incubator to? I have seen 80 degrees mentioned but cannot find a lot of information on these lizards. Really I have never found much information in general on these lizards.

Thanks in advanced.

For now it's in the enclosure. Was not expecting this at all, so I didn't have any supplies to move it outside. My supplies should arrive by Tuesday when I may decide to move it to the incubator, but the parents seem to be doing a good job caring for the egg. They laid it close enough to the heat source they have and still in a place that will get misted by the auto mister in their tank. They even have spent times sitting on top of spot and tried hiding it more after I had found it. Very interesting stuff as I have never seen anything like it before.

Ikr? Try not to get water droplets on the egg It'll block the pores from working. Good luck.
