Most people keep these in rubs with a mat and stat to keep the temps the same as the adults. Basic as possible.

Depending on the gecko will depend on what you put in the rub.

kitchen roll as substrate.

Hides/plants

small water dish/milk carton lid

Most geckos are nocturnal so light may not be a big factor.

All they need is enough to know it is night or day and most rubs are transparent or frosted and let light in.

Same as your adults. But i keep mine in a smaller viv, with smaller water dish and smaller hide. I also use paper towel instead of aspen.

i can't remember off hand how long after they hatch that they will
need feeding,was a long time ago i had hatchlings,you'll
want to buy "pin head" crickets,they are the very smallest crickets
that you can get.whatever the babies don't eat,remove from the
container.
keep us updated,it's an exciting time,what temperature are you
incubating them at ?
