There isn't as much room below the grate as I'd like, only about 1 1/2 inches. I had to leave enough room on top of the grate for a pile of eggs. Sometimes a big pile that doesn't come apart will have to go in a deeper box.
BTW, I remove all of the eggs from these boxes with multiple clutches around day 50 before they pip and get egg goo in the box. I re-use the box all year and sometimes from year to year. The snakes hatch on paper and don't get caught in the grate or drown under it. They also don't get vermiculite in their mouth and heat pits.
