Substrate to dig/sleep in

Hello!

As the temperatures continue to drop I notice my 6 month old bearded dragon digging more and more each night before going to sleep. I would like to put something down, in that one area where she sleeps at night, that would allow her to burrow and stay warm on her own on the colder nights. I don't want to put something in there that will harm her or cause impaction. I was thinking about doing alfalfa pellets, any advice on that. I highly doubt she would eat them since she absolutely hates alfalfa. She is not fed inside her tank so I wouldn't have to worry about worms and bugs hiding there. She never ever goes in her water bowl so I wouldn't have to worry about it getting wet. And she has bowl movements outside of her viv so I wouldn't have to worry about her pooping in it. Is there anything else I would have to worry about. Or any other substrates you can suggest?

Thanks,

Danielle

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
