I think part of the problems Im having though are not really being sure how to set up a laying area for chucks. I mean, I would assume they want to lay in fairly deep sand, but is this correct and is there anything else that needs to be accounted for to create a suitable laying area? Is there something else that will provide a better laying substrate? And will dampened sand for laying cause humidity to rise too high? My cage is extremely well ventilated, but even so Im concerned. How about placing vermiculite directly into the cage, which I have read on another site? Im finding that Im having to fall back on other species information and guesswork, which I really dont want to do lol Im also terrified that my poor little beasties will become egg-bound.
