Again your set up sounds nice, no wonder your getting eggs. If you feed them they will throw eggs at you for sometime.

Try this, mix sand with sifted sphagnum moss, 50/50. use it in an open area on the bottom of the cage. at least a foot deep, leaflitter over it and place a spot lite that keeps the surface around 90F. You can also put a small hollow limb going into the mix. See how that works for your monitors. The point is, the area they lay in, must be secure Deep, and the right temp(mid to low eighties) and of course humid but not wet. Monitors normally lay under sun exposed areas. Cheers and good luck.
