Answer 1

Sand as a substrate is just asking for impaction.

I hope you're not keeping that lovely Beardie on sand!

For laying Beardies, I use a large round bowl with a lid, and a hole cut in the side (just as you would for a moisture hide), and fill it with moist spagnum moss.

After she has laid, carefully mark each egg with a Sharpie, being careful not to move it, or damage it.  Move them, mark side up, to your incubator, and voila~!  Bit of heat/moisture/time and you have baby Beardies.

I hope this has been of help.

Answer 2

A litter box with sand.
