They probably won't use a lay box if you are using eco earth as the substrate on the floor - they will more than likely bury them somewhere you won't think of looking, lol. I would recommend switching to paper towels and using a tupperware container filled with something like eco earth for them to lay in if you want to use lay boxes. If not, just continue to keep an eye on them and check the substrate in the cage for eggs frequently. Usually a female will pick her spot and begin digging around in that area a few days before she actually deposits them, and you can usually tell the difference between what the female looks like before and after she lays her eggs. Of course not all girls are as obvious so checking daily or every other day when you're expecting them is a good idea.
Just make sure the substrate isn't dry or sopping wet and you'll be good.
