saharan sand boa egg incubation Qs

[joshuai]

Hello i have a "gravid" saharan sand boa on the way, and i have never had any experience with snake eggs. From what i gather they have a small clutch that hatches in about 14 days. I can not find any info on how to keep a gravid sand boa. on sand? on aspen? Do i need a moist box or something if so what do i put in it? and how do i make it? I will be keeping them at about 83deg. If some one has experience keeping eggs i would love a few tips thanks!

Aren't they live bearing snakes?

the saharans lay eggs that are very far along in development and only take 14 days or so to hatch!
