My Female cheecha has been very active and sorta digging

[muzikfreakah]

She hasn't been mated.

I have read before that sometimes they lay eggs even with out being mated? Could this be happening to her?

Should I then put a laying box? If so, is a laying box with cocopeat ok?

I touch her belly and couldn't feel any eggs though.

Or maybe she is showing signs that she is ready for mating?

Thanks in advance guys!

If she is digging daily then a lay box would be a good idea. You can use a kitty litter box filled with what ever damp substrate you want to use. Coco coir or peat would be ok, most people mix in some sand so its more stable.

Thanks!

How deep should be the lay box?
