My adult ball python from bhb I noticed will not use a hide. She will lay on around or next to it but never in it. Now I know bhb does not normally use hides with there ball pythons. I also just inquired of her age. She is roughly 4 years old. Josh told me that she never really refused a meal. But he also informed me of there tub sizes. It is like 15% of the 106 quart sterilite she is in now... so she is in a bigger home. All the temps are fine measured with a temp gun and monitored with a prob thermometer. I have her on brown packing paper actually instead of newspaper like I normly use. This is the first bp I have ever seen not use a hide. Do you think I should keep the hide boxes in there I could I try and see how she does with out them... oh yeah her cage is between my bed and the wall on the floor so she don't get much traffic through. Thinks for the advice in advence
