Re: Sav Eating Her Own Eggs?

I only know that she's been digging a lot lately and spending more time in and around her burrow, behavior I have never really seen before.
I know it's so important! I did my best to provide what I thought was a proper nesting site. Now I need to figure out what's wrong with it.



She has two basking spots that cover her SVL. One is 140*F and the other is 150*F. This wasn't intentional, it just worked out this way. Her ambient humidity is 70 to 80% throughout most of the enclosure and 60% near the basking spot. She has 12 inches of a soil/sand substrate throughout. Her enclosure is 5 feet long, 2 feet deep, and 3 feet tall.

Last I checked, the substrate near the basking spot is 85*F and it's 80*F throughout the rest of the enclosure.

I've been meaning to verify the soil temps but she's been in her burrow so I haven't been able to.
Soil temp soil depth soil type...

Erm hope that helps...

soil temps id try and keep them with a range of 80 - 90 at different depths...

id also dig up the entire enclosure there very good at hiding eggs...
