    Behavioral signs of a content snake?

    Hello again everyone!

    I realize I just posted a couple of days ago about ambient temps, but I had another few questions about behavior, and thought it might be worth another post. If not, forgive me I'm new.

    After taking some advice from you guys, and doing a lot more research, I finally feel pretty good about my set up. While you could argue that my ambient temperatures aren't as high as some have suggested, I can tell you that my BP has pooped, eaten, and seems to be thriving. I've read that a happy snake is a hiding snake, and I can tell you that I've found him in his cool hide, his warm hide, and every now and then he comes out doing the day and gets into his hollow log deal for a bit, before going back into his warm hide. Later in the evening when I come in to check temps on everyone I sometimes catch him out exploring, but never doing anything I would consider as trying to escape. No glass surfing or anything like that.

    Would you all consider this a content animal? I know all snakes are different, but it seems to me like he's adjusted well and is settling in, and just wanted some more experienced opinions.
