I put all the eggs in a cage underneathe a heating lamp which is hot enough to keep them warm and alive. Will this suffice? Because I cant afford an incubator right now and I cant give the eggs back to the mommys because they are killing all the babies!
 
Unless you make a homemade incubator which is a super cheap alternative to an incubator, i think the only choice would be to find someone close by to incubate them for you
 
I made one for like $15. Free cardboard box, $6 light fixture, $9 temperature and humidity gauge. I cut a window in the cardboard box and taped a rectangular piece of glass from a picture frame to create a window and the "door". Then just used some plastic tupperware for water storage for the humidity. Cheap and easy.
