Laybox??

Didnt think breeding was the appropriate place for this since I'm dealing with infertile eggs - but if it needs to be moved then I apologise!!!

Anyway, Abu appears to be 'full of eggs' (as a local breeder/shop owner told me today). Anyway, he wasnt too good with the laybox instructions and I read so much on here that I just want to check that I have the details correct and figure out all my confusion. So basically I think I need

a 10 gallon rubbermaid with lid
sand
potting soil

Now for the questions...

1) I should mix the sand and the potting soil with water so it holds a burrow?
2) How do I ensure that the burrow doesnt collapse?
3) How do I keep it at a good temperature??
4) Do I cut holes in it??
5) Do I put it in her viv or place her inside it if she starts digging frantically?

I seem to have got myself a little confused so if some one could just lay it out for me - kind of step by step - it would be absolutely fabulous!!!!

Thanks in advance!!

I just filled aliiterpan w/ eco earth.some say playsand & water till you can build a castle.
Malibu insists on going to the playground to lay her last 4 clutches but its getting cold so i keep litterpan ready.

Hmmm didnt think of eco earth - might do that as playsand is not going to be easy to source atm with the weather we are having here!!

Thanks
