My method is very similar, last year the nesting boxes in the enclosures were a complete failure for me, the snakes laid the eggs but never in a timely manner. By like the 4th clutch I just took the female out of her enclosure and put her in a 20 quart tall rubbermaid with about 4-5 inches of moistened peat moss and spag moss and a piece of tile with a water bowl on top of the tile. With mexican milks cal kings and honduran milks this method has worked very good for me with all eggs laid being good and they all laid within 3 days of being in this new form of a nesting box, which I put them in the day they shed.
