    Eva keeps trying to escape...

    I'm not quite sure if it's something I should be worried about or not. She usually tries about this time every night, I guess when she becomes "active" if you will. I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.

    2 hides, heat pad regulated to 91 degrees, air temp is at 80. Humidity at 50%. She's not scheduled to feed until tomorrow, so I don't know if this is normal behavior.

    Any help would be great, even if it's just "That's normal".

    Yes, they are excellent Houdini's You could try upgrading her food size to see if she is just hungry. It's basically normal though. All of mine do it, especially a few days before it's time to eat

    Well, her first meal was a fuzzy mouse. Seemed okay size until I saw what everyone else was posting their balls eating. I haven't weighed her, however I already know when I go get food tomorrow I'm upping the size.

    I feed fuzzy rats to baby snakes right after their 3rd or 4th meal of asf hoppers.
    Fuzzy mice are even smaller, so your def feeding too small unless its a brand new baby.

    If your snake wasn't trying to escape at night I'd have to think something was wrong
