I also use containers (deli cups) with no holes, I open them once a week for fresh air. As far as moisture you don't want condinsation dripping on the eggs, this can cause mold. If this is happening, take a paper towel and fold it so it fits over the eggs, and let the condinsation drip on there and replace it till it stops dripping.

If you think it is not moist enough you can add water to the substrate, but make sure you add only a little and off to the side of the container. If you feel just the top of the eggs are too dry, take a paper towel, wet it and ring it out, fold and place on top of the eggs.

I use albeys method. A brief over view of the method is to add perlite and water (1:.8 ratio) in a closed, airtight container. All that is required is opening the lid once a week for airflow. Hope this helps, if not go to http://www.albeysreptiles.com/incubate-eggs.htm this will show you step by step what to do. Good luck, Chris.
