Ball python Very Active

[xphoenix23]

i have a ball python and its really weird she is not in her hide shes wondering around in her enclosure im wondering is she hungry i tried to feed her a pinkie 2 days ago and she wasn't interested should i try today?

Is she a new baby? How long have you had her? I wouldn't give her two more days and then try. I would not do the pinkie thing though. Try a mouse hopper is she is a small young one. How big is she?

sometimes in the summer they become way more active than in winter or other seasons. how long have you hade your snake? Maybe she needs some type of larger prey

Need lots more info and pics if you have it.
Temperatures and how you heat your snakes home?

Roaming occasionally is normal, roaming alot during the day can be several things.
Too hot
Not comfortable IE: hide is inadequate in size or tank is too exposed to foot traffic.
Hungry - IE: pinkies are too small and too inactive usually for even baby balls, I start babies on asf/mouse hoppers and quickly switch to rat fuzzies and on up, mine never see a pinky.

she is 3 months old the temps in her tank is 85 degrees i had her for 2 weeks she hasn't ate ever since i got her

Well, she needs a hot side, and a cool side. She needs one side to be between 90-92 and the other 80-82. She is probably cold. How are you measuring her temps? What is her humidity? She needs an under tank heater to warm her up and a thermostat to control it. She should also have two hides. One for hot, one for cold.

How big is her enclosure?

i do have to hides one on cool end and one on the warm end i have a under tank heater under her hide that's pretty warm i think about 90 also have a water bowl i forgot how big is her enclosure its a bin though

[stratus_020202]

Ok. That's good. You need to measure that heat pad though. They can spike over 100 degrees and that is very harmful to you baby.

Hmm. A bin? Maybe it is too big. If he is a hatchline a 42 qt tub is a little large. Did you try putting some plants and things in their to crowd it up? Maybe try that. If you change her home, she needs one week to get used it, and then try to feed her again. A mouse hopper this time.

You need to know the temps not think you know.
Do you have your under tank heater on a thermostat?
Do you have a probed thermometer to check your UTH temperature?

15 qt tub is perfect for 3 month old babies.

Constant roaming combined with failure to eat = something is wrong with the habitat.

The snake is trying to escape to a more desirable location. It is not happy where it is right now, and doesn't feel comfortable, so it's trying to move.
