i am using a 5 gallon bucket its about 15 inches tall/deep filled with soil mixed with sand...is this a good spot for her to lay eggs??

I'm using a Home depot 5 gal. bucket with moist topsoil and a pre-started hole for my Ooran Mena . so far shes digging and dropping eggs at the same time.

so your sayn i should pre dig a hole for her?how deep how wide>?

I know this sounds weird but they like a snug fit . I used two fingers on a angle about 3 in. deep.

hmm well then ill go do just that if you can please look at my other forum on the main page with pix of my female i am debating if she is gravid or not

also should i put her net to the bucket or should i let her find it herself?

My female has been in the bucket since Sunday and just started to dig today. I have grapevine that goes around the inside of the bucket thats where she slept last night.

i have one of those bendable vines that goes rite into the bucket and a silk play that hang rite into it but she still just sit at the top of the 260 gal repterium in one spot under the uvb light

When my females are gravid or ready to lay they avoid the heat/uv lamps they stay in the shadows and when they do go to the lamps its a short visit.

i wrote this in a diff forum but today i picked up her poop and she had a few crickets un chewed just basically swallowed and pooped out what can this mean??
