Who knows why he is digging. Maybe he likes to dig.

As far as the temperature and the sand is concerned this is my opinion on it. We dont use sand in our enclosures for our leos. Impaction being the number one concern. You said the heat was getting to high so you are useing sand. Unless you are useing a deeper level of sand then it is probablly still to warm. Example: 95 degrees is 95 deegres no matter what the surface is made of. Go to home depot and pick yourself up a dimmer switch in the fan and lighting section. they cost like 10 bucks and you simply plug the uth into the switch and then the switch into the wall. Chevck your temps as you would and atleast this way you can control the heat out put. Better yet buy a thermostat and that is even less of a headache!
