Re: my snake never comes out
Yea this is normal. They love to hide
you said three on the hot side how big of an enclosure do you have him in??

Re: my snake never comes out
I dont know if its normal or not but my BP doesnt do much exploring around in her cage. She comes out every now and then to switch hides or get a drink... she usually does most of her exploring when i take her out and let her roam around the house while i watch her.

That's your snake thermoregulating...changing hides when he needs to cool off and thats awesome that you have all those options for him. If he were to be out of his hides roaming a lot, then he'd be trying to tell you something wasn't right...

Re: my snake never comes out
I'm new to BPs--and my boy's only been here about 3 weeks. He tends to hang out in his hides (or under the KRAFT paper substrate ) during the day. At night, he'll come out and do some cruising around--but he usually starts doing that as I'm getting ready for bed

Ball pythons are nocturnal, which means they are generally not active durring the day.

Re: my snake never comes out
Snakes vary quite greatly in personality and shyness. I have a ball that will never come out in the day for anything, I also have one that will come out and sit on top of his hide and watch me while I'm in the room.
