Robyn from Pro Exotics that posts here has stated a couple of times a minimum of 8 inches deep.
Now keep in mind this is with the proper soil mix with the proper soil moisture levels and with proper Uro conditions (heat etc) within the enclosure.
At this time i have maybe 3 inches of playsand and my little guy loves to dig around some.He's brumating at the moment but when he's done i plan on changing over to the soil mix to give it a shot.
You can scroll down or look back a page or two at the posts for more specific info as i've forgotten offhand the exact mix (quite sleepy at the moment hehe)
