Looks good to me. Gives her privacy because it is dark inside. I suspect you might want to put it in a warmer part of the cage where the incubating temp of 88 degrees to 92 degrees is achieved. I think the heat mat could be a good idea, as long as it doesn't overheat the vermiculite. If you let the temps go down 10 degrees at night, the heat mat could make her more compelled to lay at the higher temperature. I don't think it is a good idea to leave the male in when she starts going to town in the nest box. Anybody agree/disagree???
