When she laid the eggs where were they deposited?
Yes, that`s good growth in a year.

First time all over the place. I offered an area 8ft by 4ft by 3-4ft deep of moist bark/compost. She made a large borrow around 2ft deep and 3ft long and only attending this borrow for days just seemily to check it but days before she laid temps outside dropped ALOT which in turn made my ambient temps 5-10'c lower in her enclosure mainly overnight. She then made loads of other small holes and ended up scattering the eggs. No heating of the substrate was offered as it was 28-34'c ambient temps day and night prior to the outside weather change wish i did now as i swear she was happy with it until the weather change.
second time round. i offered 4 x differant 110l bins filled with differant stuff and 1 x nest box all heated this time. She entered each one only once or twice but not one was even clawed (i had ipcam on record so missed nothing) she choose to lay the eggs in the bark/compost mix between the nest bins, same substrate as offered first time round, though nowhere near deep enough.
I clearly have not got what she likes right yet and will continue to try others this year. Due to move her enclosure soon so to allow me more space for differant nesting options. Any ideas greatfully taken onboard
