Would top soil make the jungle mix easier to burrow in? and what ratios do you think would work well?

I haven't had much experience with substrate besides douglas fir and eco earth, I'm trying to do something nicer for my snakes.
Ya topsoil will make it able to hold a burrow. Start with a 70/30 mix of topsoil to eco earth or jungle mix and see how well it holds. If you can make a ball out of it and it holds together, then it'll hold the burrow.
