    Weird Behaviour

    Hey, haven't posted in a while which is good cause I only post when I'm worried lol.
    Hebi (normal royal about 5 months, they grow up so fast ) she's been sleeping with her head outside her hide, not unusual for her to have her head outside her hide during the evening but this is during the day and I think she is sleeping since she isn't holding her head up or looking at me as I walk past. She switches from sleeping normally all in her hide to sleeping with her head out every hour. There is still a bit of space extra in the hide so its not that she is cramped. She is also been sleeping on her cool side which is unusual for her.
    Is this ok, I don't understand why she is doing this lol is she good.
    Also she did actually escape 3 days ago, apparently the vents in her wooden viv barely need a tap to come out, I found her wedged by the side of my wardrobe, she was super cold but still moved around and I slowly warmed her up. So the last few days she's been pushing on the vents a bit at night-less and less each day. But I'm worried if she is stressed or if she just now knows that the vents come off (don't worry they don't come off now but she doesn't know that lol).
    Is she stressed or should I just wait a couple of days to see if the behaviour continues, she doesn't show any other stress signs or try to get out in any other ways.

    I wouldn't worry about how she is sleeping. Snakes do remember how they escaped & tend to keep trying, so make SURE everything is secure.

    Re: Weird Behaviour

    Yeah I was pushing so hard that I was moving the vivarium and I keep on checking to make sure lol. She didn't try to get out much last night so I think she's starting to realise that I have foiled her plan. She's grumpy today cause I'm extending the gaps between her feeding so she's hungry.
