What kind of snail do you have and what do the eggs look like? Are they below the water or above the water?

Probably some kind of apple or black mystery snail then. Since they're above the water, you could just keep them from getting wet, but have them in a place wo that when they hatch, the baby snails can get to the water. Also, watch out for gnat larvae (I've spent hours picking them out of clusters before).

You also might want to browse through this site to figure out exactly what kind of snail you have and see if there's any more specific needs for hatching the eggs:
