seems good but breeding boscs is very hard as they need atleast like 4 foot deep of sand just to lay their eggs in i heard! might be wrong but if you prepared for that then that is all fine...

are very difficult to breed apparently, females need a really good nesting site to lay or they just wont lay. Saying that a mate of mines laid hers all over the viv twice but they were no good unfortunatly. Eggs are hard to get to hatch and incubation period can be upto 9 months or more

yes male and female...

And as others have said if conditions aint right they wont lay there eggs..

And if you do get them to lay and they are fertile then it can take 9mths plus for them to hatch out as there very hard to breed and take alot to do.
