Very nice!!! Did you put the nest box in her cage.. for her to lay in.. or is that her house..?

Im gonna take a small shoebox and lay it in my females cage with moist vermiculite and maybee some moss..i just hope she will lay them in there..

Yes, I put a small nest box in her cage about 3-4 days after her pre-egg laying shed. I use moist sphag moss.

I think I would leave out the vermiculite.
Vermiculite is fine for incubating the eggs but a little too "packed" for the laying box.
Sphagnum moss is much more snake friendly in a lay box.
Easier for the snake to burrow in to deposit her eggs.
I just think the vermiculite is too rough and compacted to be a good laying medium.
just thinking out loud, so-to-speak.
