With ball pythons, space heaters are your friend. Easily the most simple way of fixing the problem with having low ambient temps. Walmart carries a good selection of them.

If the hides aren't identical, switch them and see if she stays with the same hide while it's on the warm side. I guess that may show if she prefers one type of hide over the other...

Re: Why so active?
That's a good idea. If I choose to create new hides should I try making them smaller? Is something around 3 inches wide too small? I've heard many times (especially if a snake has gotten loose) that if a place looks too small, then that's probably where you should look.:)
