One time when my oldest girl Dexter was small and I thought she needed more stimuli, I got a small cat litter box and put some children's play sand in it and put it on the cool side of her tank so that she could play and dig if she wanted to. She never wanted too. Now what I do for mine is I use the vertical space in their tank as well as the floor space so they have different levels to climb on. It's not much it keeps them busy when they want to be busy.

My vet told me once that he didn't like the idea of a dig box in the tank for a female dragon if they don't have eggs. He said that giving them something to dig in might trigger infertile eggs to be formed.

Plants inside the tank will raise the humidity. You also have to find something that is safe for dragons to eat because they probably will eat them.

You could still make her a dig box to play in outside of her tank.

Organic soil mixed with children's play sand should work. Make sure it's not too moist but moist enough to hold a tunnel.
