    Hide on the warm side,temp on warm side is about 85-90,humidity averages like 60-65,water bowl on the cool side. ,he is eating wih no problems what so ever... He will come out round 7 and roam for a few hours climbing everything..I just got home and he was sleeping again in the plants. I walked up to the tank he just saw me and now is out,so idk man,I'm wondering if he is hungry and know I feed him..cause he came out tonight when I came home as well....also,every time I walk in he's usually relaxing,seems like when he sees I'm home he comes out.

    The only time I catch them out during the day is when I'm about to feed or they're moving between hides. Otherwise, about 98% of the time, they're in their hides whenever I check on them. At night they're much more active, but that's because they're nocturnal.

    Mine didn't use her hide for about the first two weeks I had her. She still ate well during this time, so I think she was acclimating herself and trying to fogure out where she felt most comfortable and secure.

    Now, she alternates between her warm and cool hides. She's out and about some at night, and I will see her drinking water occasionally during this time.

    Mostly, though, she does what ball pythons do best.

    All of mine are in tubs in an enclosed rack:
    3 do not use hides and don't have them anymore
    3 are always in their hides
    2 prefer to hangout behind their hides and occasionally use them properly.

    Only two really roam around during daylight. The rest leave tracks in their aspen that show they've been out in the dark.
