Thank you kindly sir, I will be adding this to my hognose notebook!
So, in the wild, the female would be there for quite a while before laying. When you transfer her to the "laying enclosure", do you move HER usual decor into it so she's more at home, smells her own scent etc. ??? And, over the coco/sand mix, do you put a layer of her normal substrate?
How do you cover the enclosure? I guess a wire mesh of some sort, to let the heat lamp get to her in the day?
That is a great photo, I would love to see more if you have them. It makes sense to let her get comfortable and make a structure for her babies, must lead to a lot less stress. I will definitely try this in the future, the first chance I get. Cheers!
