I've always used plastic shoe boxes with a hole in the top and a few inches of Vermiculite and spagnum moss. I've never really had any problems this way. Some people have had snakes that refuse the box and scatter eggs or lay them in the water bowl, but I haven't had that happen yet. I did have a corn snake lay most of her eggs in the box and then drop two eggs in the water bowl. The two eggs looked like slugs anyway.
