When do I know when my girl is old enough to need a laying box?

[Poeticplural]

Hello

I just recently got my girl Millie, and I was wondering how I could tell when she is getting old enough to need a laying box. She is going, but I don't know how young. I have had my eye on her since at least late march and just bought her a few days ago. So I know she is at least three months. Any help would be much appreciated!

Here are some pictures. The last one is of her when she was still in the store. I do not have any substrate in her cage.

With females I heard it suggested to keep a lay bin in the enclosure at all times past 6 months. They may not need it then, but it is better safe than sorry.

I recommend around five months. I have a few blogs and a video about the female veiled and the laying bin attached below.
