strange behavior

[JUNKyardHOE]

has anyone seen their python do anything like this?

[rjk890]

Yes.
What kind of bedding is that?

[JUNKyardHOE]

it's zoo med repti bark

[Patricia]

Love it! It should be entered in the Ball Python of The Month photo contest!

[SatanicIntention]

Are those heat rocks??

If so, get them out, your snake will get burned. It's not a matter of IF, it's a matter of WHEN and how severe.

They borrow in the wild and thats what it looks like he is doing! He needs a better hide! Those half logs offer no security and thats why he is acting like that!

[JUNKyardHOE]

don't worry they are just normal rocks.... I would never put heat rocks in his cage

[Kaorte]

I agree with seeya205. That hide is not adequate and that is why the snake is poking his nose around looking for a new place to hide.

[JUNKyardHOE]

thats the first time he has done that in five years and he has always had that half log... I have two of them and one has the back side blocked off

[Eventide]

My big female used to always burrow in her wood shavings...and she had two good hides! She just loved to burrow. And climb. I think she has green tree python identity issues.
