DIG BOXES :-)

Hey!! Share your dig box substrate and enclosure you keep it in! Trying to get some ideas! Thanks ???

I use a sand/soil mix (bioactive) substrate.

I used playground sand with a soil mix. I put it in a plastic container that i can move in and out for when she's gravid and wanting to dig.

Wow that looks awesome! Is this separate from the enclosure?

Awesome that's a great idea! I have a plastic container with alfalfa pellets but they're clearly not enough for digging so he doesn't really care right now. How deep would you say is the dirt and sand in your container?

I used this:

I measured the size of my enclosure and about how deep/wide would fit for it and still give a nice amount to dig. I also made sure I had something that could rest on top to act as a top and a ramp to get in and out of it.

I wouldn't pick the white again as it seems too light, and she'd prefer a darker space.

Nope, its the whole substrate.
