laying sites for veiled

[chameleonlord]

hi in my veiled chameleon enclosure i have 2 plants with rocks over the substrate and 1 black plastic bucket in there with damp topsoil in there enough so if she digs it wont collapse is that correct? or do i take out the other buckets with rocks on them for her laying site? thanks

I've always used washed playsand in the egglaying container. You can leave the plants in.

ok just the video says topsoil i might change to 50/50 mix seems to be what everyone else uses

I used dampen cocopeat for egg laying substrate place in a garbage bin and placed it in the enclosure. I stick a piece of wood for the female easy access.

I use play sand. I've linked my egg laying/laying bin blog for you below and Dez's video on how to set up a laying bin incase you haven't found them on here yet.
