That looks really nice. I would lose the chamfer on the edge of the chambers though, if that's what that is.

I'm assuming those are for the lid, a small lip might go in that section to grip.
Those look really good though. What did you use to run them on?

I think you might be misunderstanding what a chamfered edge is.

Very nice, I would add a second entrance as it makes it easier to move a colony later on.
Either a place for a water tray to wick up from underneath, or a water chamber for species that need a humid nest.

We've got a flat bed CNC machine here at our manufacturing company. Its a monster 6m machine so its quite funny running these tiny nests on it.

Yes, I'm still finalising the hydration method. I have a few ideas that I'll share once I'm done.
