First- I wasn't sure where to post this particular subject, so i felt this was the best place. I got these containers from Staples and they work AWESOME for eggs. They are plastic containers (come in small and in large) that are on clearance that you are supposed to put small office supplies in and buy (paper clips and stuff), but they are cheaper than clearance if you get them plain. They cost $1 for small and $2 for large. The lid DOES go on pretty tight, so I leave mine on loose, but outside of that they are all around a great idea. They are "spaced" in a way that you can separate eggs, monitor how much hatching medium, and label easier...thus premium egg organization. I would put a clutch of Rhacodactylus eggs in a large space or just one egg in a small space (small container), OR one egg each space for a Leo. Do what you will with this info, but I would LOVE to create discussion on these and see what you think! Heres a pic:

These look like a nice solution for inexpensive multi-egg/hatchling isolation and offer an inexpensive alternative to a number of other options. Nice find.

that's a very good idea actually. similar to the GEO. do the partitions go all the way up to the lid? as far as the tight fitting lid, that's preferred when hatching out leos.

To answer your question Fuzzylogix, the partitions end about 1/16 from the top so no they do not go quite all of the way but pretty close....not enough room for a baby leo or crested gecko. They have worked good for me lately. Baoh, thank you for your comment too and thank you both for saying its a good find.

I definately will keep you updated. I have 4 crested gecko eggs in one right now. they hold a great amount of moisture/humidity with out being too much. I'll keep you all updated as I see your responses.
