    yes I thought about that and stuffed it had a friend cut a hole cut some six inch pvc pipe and put it under. I want to seal it off for good but I don’t know what to stuff it with permanently

    not something that we can look right into easily.

    I use a few of those tree-tunnels in my snake's homes too, but I use them as a "front porch" for their secure black hide directly behind it. I like the Buddha too, btw...

    Sorry, I'm not up on the "lavender" versus albino thing...:snake:

    Thankfully he eats like a champ he pounds those mice lol. Thanks for the advice, im glad i also watched a thousand videos on ball pythons and tried to read as many articles as i could on husbandry etc, and the reptile/snake community are so helpful and informative which is nice so thanks again

    Definitely echo this!! Mine got stuck in a skull and we had had to cut him out. Now I'm extra cautious with hides!
