I have a female normal ball python, and she never seems to hide in her log hide anymore! I have the log hide on the warm side, and she has always hid there. I read that BPs like a lot of clutter, so I took it upon myself to buy a lot of fake plants and other things for her to hide behind. The problem is, she now seems more content behind the plants. I use an UTH as my primary heat source. This wouldn't concern me as much, but I know that when she grows bigger, those plants will not provide her with adequate cover. She eats like a champ, and rarely turns down a meal. Should I just leave her be and continue to up her hide size as she grows? Or should I take out the plants. Her warm side is about 90-92 degrees, and i do plan to get a thermostat. Please don't get mad, I didn't realize a thermostat was so important.
