Hammocks/old owners smoked/pregnant?

Hi,
I was thinking of getting a hammock for my beardie but I have a wooden vivarium and all the reviews have said that the suckers don't stick to wood so should I get one with hooks? Or is it not worth it? Also I feel like it should be bigger than her or does it not have to be? And I have another question, Her old owners smoked and it took me 3 days to get rid of the smell by keeping my windows open constantly, how much would this have effected her health? She seems to breathe fine and has a lot of energy and poos regularly. And my last question is that they had a male(he was with another female and she had eggs) and I don't know if he was put in with my beardie(she is 3 y/o so is at sexual maturity)? Also I've heard of females laying infertile eggs just by seeing a male so she may have a phantom pregnancy? Her symptoms are digging, going off food(I've tried feeding favourite food, she eats a bit then stops) constantly wanting to come out, I've let her outside cuddled her etg and as soon as she goes back inside she wants to come out again. Her belly is sagging slightly and I can see two lumps on her side but can't feel them.
I'll attach some images of her

The green fish net hammocks use the suction cups and are not good if they get thier nails stuck in them. I have one that I got online from Carolinas dragon off of Amazon. They use those Command sticky hooks.

Sure, you can make your own, seems easy, 3 grommets, some fabric that won't snag thier nails and plastic command hooks. Post some photos when your finished.

Hello,

Have you made a laybox for her just in case she does have eggs that she needs to lay? She could be gravid if she was with a male or they may be infertile, too.
Smoking probably didn't have any effect on her hopefully. If she seems to be breathing normally & appears healthy then she should be fine there. She looks very good in your pictures, too. :D
Are you giving her extra calcium also to help in case she does have eggs?

Hi
I haven't but I will after school, will mud be ok? I've added extra calcium to her veggies which she preferes to putting it on insects. She's becoming a lot brighter :) she did a shed around her eyes and mouth the day I got her. How deep would the mud have to bed in the lay box?
Thanks

One of the people on this site, said it should be 10-12 inches deep in a plastic storage container. Should be a mix of sand, dirt and something else.

A mix of play sand and organic topsoil. The sand should be wet a bit so it can hold a tunnel structure. You could put a shoebox or something similar in with one of the narrow sides cut out to act as a roof for a tunnel as well.

I've put slightly damp soil in there and will add sand :) it is also warm so she'll like it more and I haven't seen how deep it is but l'll measure it

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
