I would take that bet, yes some snakes recognize nesting under some hard object. In the field, I know pyros do, But I also know in some locals they do not. That makes a good question, do all populations understand many ways to nest or only a few?

I used this method successfully on V.kingorum. But other then that, they do not seem to give a crap about hard flat objects. At least the smaller monitors. I have had some success doing this with larger monitors.



You can see the board I am holding up, to photograph these gouldicross eggs. I wonder if glass would work better then wood?

I am using some large rock tile plates in some cages now. Cheers
