Quick question. Loki has been WAY more active lately. He climbs on stuff attached to the inside of his cage and most often burrowing. He digs his head into the substrate and then tunnels around the back of his water bowl. Is this just interesting behavior or is he trying to tell me something?

Re: New Activity
When I see over-activity I think over heating first and check temps to make sure they are where they are supposed to be.
What are your temperatures in the enclosure?

Re: New Activity
It could be too hot or the hides are not good enough! The hides should be just big enough for the snake to coil in and just one small opening!

Re: New Activity
The temps are fine. warm side 87-91 cool side ~80. He loves both his hides and consistently uses both. Humidity hangs around 60-70. Three sides of his cage covered.

Re: New Activity
well what kind of hides are they, describe them. how often do u feed and what size? what kind of enclosure are u using and how big is it, and what size is ur snake. im guessin its husbandry or hunger
A room full of empty racks and thermostats that have been unplugged.

I feed weekly according to his widest point. He takes the rats down no problem. The cage is a 20L and he is still young, bought 7-8 months. Roughly 3' long. He has two hides. One fake rock hide and one that is an overturned and cut down flower pot. Both similar color, material, height, and area inside.

pics could be nothing. i know some reptiles will burrow for humidity, safety, and/or thermoregulation. if he stops eating, u should begin to worry... if he eats, he probably feels safe, and knows that he will be able to digest it since the temps are proper.. if u honestly believe something may be wrong, maybe pictures could help us spot something that you may be missing..
