i picked up my first ball python today (a pastel juvenile)

got him home and put him in the tank with the two hides water dish and under tank heating.

he spent the entire day climbing the sides of the tanks and sort of falling over once he reached the top.

now hes just sitting in the corner of the tank between the glass and hide. from what i can tell he hasent gone into either hides as of yet

now im probably just being paranoid but dont they prefer be inside a hide
