Why did my Mojave completely rearrange her tank?

[Jennarnia]

My 3-month old Mojave completely pushed her hide off of the warm side, managed to get it propped up over her water bowl....should I be worried?

Nah, my snakes rearrange with furniture all the time. I usually just put it back when I notice it. She probably wanted to take a drink in privacy.

Some have a stronger urge than others to redecorate.

My ball pythons are neat and obedient little pipsqueaks, while my dumeril's boa rearranges her enclosure every week! One time, I found her large hide box flipped upside down, and she was just curled up inside of it like noodles in a bowl.

Maybe it's a mojo thing! My 1700+ mojo girl never keeps anything in the same spot she moves her hide all over her tub!

To redecorate. I have a snake that rearranges the same way everytime i clean his tub.

My ball python, that boy goes everywhere... He makes his own maze out of the substrate, then digs under the water bowl, the fact is, he's a messy snake. So every other day I have to fix it as he watches me and awaits to redo it later.

Haha that's good to hear that it's not a concern. She just seems so small, I underestimated her strength. Thanks for all of the responses, everyone!

She has strong opinions about Feng Shui.

Yzma redecorates at night when we are sleeping. She moves her huts all over and pushes bedding around. It's pretty funny. Sometimes I notice a really wonky temperature and when I look for the thermometer probe, she's pulled it way over where it's not supposed to be.
