Hi again Gregg,
you will need to state the species and number of times they nested in "nest boxes" versus other parts of the enclosure, and if they do choose the box rather than other parts, were all the other parts providing EXACTLY the same conditions as said box?
Myself and crocdoc2 had a short discussion on whether termite mound nesters (Lace monitors in that case), might be more prone to using a box on top of the substrate because it at least bears a resemblance to the object they usually choose in the wild (if we can call a termite mound a "box" on the ground, which in effect it is).
Not that we have a definitive answer to that (yet), just hypothesising!
