Hi FR,
I have always been pro whole cage nesting due to results I have seen with my ackies. I have run across a small issue recently and would be curious what your input would be. I have varanus salvadorii and have recently started to remove all the dirt from the cage because I plan to move soon. I have already found at least one clutch of eggs that I missed in the cage (hell to find anything in a 10x13 shed with 10-30in of dirt). What would be a good medium for varanus salvadorii when I start over. I tried nest boxes which were rejected (trash cans, large tubs, -open tops, full, side entrances, etc).
Just thinking of ways to pin point my croc eggs in the future (dirt/sand mix, leaf mix, or ?) I know you have worked with them and I believe you told me at one time that you guided Stan Chiras.
Cheers Dustin
