A hiding ball python is a happy ball python. If yours is cruising the tank that's generally a sign of stress. I'm guessing that's what your question is pertaining to?

When they are scared, startled, or disturbed it's not abnormal to see them breathing heavily.

Yes. Don't worry my boa does it too if I burst into her tub without her seeing me coming.

breathing heavily is something that a scared snake will often do. I'm sure this is what you are witnessing with your snake. It isn't a sign of illness unless its accompanied by a wheezing, popping, or whistling sound.
