lay box help

[capoeirajosh]

Ok, so I made a lay box for one of my females. I put it in there about a week ago. I went out of town and when I was gone it she pulled a bunch of moss out of the lay box, so I know she was in there. Since I have been back though, I haven't seen her in there once. I am using the lay box as the moist hide as well. Before I put the new lay box in, I had just an ordinary reptile hide in there with some moss and she went in there all of the time. My question is, should I put her original moist hide back in the tank with her and just let her lay in there or should I keep the lay box I made in there and just hope that she will go in there when she is ready to lay?? I just bred her today and am kinda worried now about the situation. The reason I switched to the lay box is because I was worried about the eggs sticking to the repti-carpet that is in there.

i think you should make a new lay box with a hole in the top of it because then they cant kick out moss and you probably wont get eggs for awhile so she is prob just getting used to it

Ok, thank you. So you think I should just make a new laybox right away or wait and see if she gets used to this one??

um i think right away because she will continue to spread out the moss probably
