Hi Wayne,
you`ve completely managed to miss the point (well done for that at least). In your case from what I can see in the pics and videos the dirt slopes up at each side but there`s very little depth all around the center of the enclosure which means you`ve significantly reduced the available space for burrowing/nesting helping maintain humidity, etc. Of course slopes occur in the wild and they use them, but there`s enough depth all around to make it work! Why did you not answer this question at the HC when I asked it? Frank Retes also made the point to you almost a year ago when you first got them.
I hope I`ve put that clearly, if not, jumble the words around and see if that helps... (Wink).
