    Re: Burying themselves ?

    BP's do like to borrow if the bedding in the tank allows for it. I know my snake has made herself a little place where she can get under the bedding. When she was younger and smaller i used to find her under the climbing logs where she would dig out the bedding and get herself nice and snug under there.

    If i were you i would not really worry about that too much. Specially if she is accepting meals

    She might just be trying to get warmer to digest her meal. Nothing to worry about. mine do it all the time. Mostly they just move the substrate rather then burrow.

    Always better to error on the side of caution!
