Your dragon will breed when she is ready to breed. But when your dragon does become gravid and has eggs, i have found the best way to set her up is to by a rubbermaid bucket (approx. 25 gallons) and fill a quarter of it with moist sand. Move the sand around so that it is on a slant. Make sure that the sand does not have any standing water or it isnt dripping wet, you want it moist, like when you make sandcastles. Pat down the sand so it is flat. As for a cover to go over the top of the rubbermaid, i use a screen and staple it to a wooden built frame that is the size of the bucket, big enough so the dragon cant escape. When all that is done i put a heat lamp in the corner to give light and keep the dragon warm. You dont want the dragon to get too comfortable or she will forget what shes doing.

I also suggest doing more research on breeding bearded dragons. There are plenty of websites that give detailed information as well as past posts in the dragon forum. I have noticed you are asking alot of basic questions regarding bearded dragon breeding and think you may save alot of time doing some online research or picking up the bearded dragon manual (or both)
