I am very excited! But also very scared I wont be able to care for it correctly. I've been googling like crazy trying to make sure I'm doing everything right.

You will do fine. When I use to bring the box turtle eggs in to incubate (these day I just leave them out in the enclosure), I would simply have them with damp paper towels or substrate and just leave them in a dish in an unused cupboard. Seemed to work well for me.

who layed the egg? is there a male with her?

Ma'am my Eastern Box turtle laid it. She's mated a couple of times with my friends male. Unfortuanetly it didn't make it, nor did the other 2 she laid.
