your heat lamp is fine just the uvb
You will need a proper laybin in her cage. It will need to be left there all the time once she gets her big girl colors. (Mustardy yellow splotches and bright blue dots all over her. (Laybin...minimum size 12" x8" X 8"... Filled with washed playsand that is moist enough to hold a tunneI.
Once she's almost mature, you also need to make sure you don't overfeed her and moderate her basking temperature. Too much food can make them lay huge clutches and develop MBD and even prolapse.
When she's digging do not let her see you watching her.
Here's how it should go...she may dig some test holes but should settle in one and dig it until she's happy with it. She should turn around, butt down in the hole...likely in the evening...and lay all her eggs one after the other...then bury them and tamp down the sand and return to the branches thin, hungry, thirsty and likely a little dirty.
You can then take the bin out for a few minutes, dig up the eggs and count them. The number will let us know if she needs to change her diet more.
