Yes, here's the information as of now.

Good info above. What are you using for hides? Is the enclosure a glass tank? How big are the enclosure and snake?
Regards,
B.
1 large wood-looking hide (Just got this for her; she preferred the smaller one without a doubt). Enclosure is glass tank. Snake is about 32" (she's hard to measure precisely) enclosure is 12x12x28 inches.

Re: Ball Python resting beneath substrate. Is this typical?
What kind of substrate are you using? What are your temps and how are you measuring them? Above or below the substrate? It could be that he/she just feels more secure when burrowed and is using the substrate as a make-shift hide, or maybe the temps on top of the substrate aren't warm enough so he/she is burrowing toward the heat...
Reptile substrate from the pet store. Very soft bedding, resembles moss. Warm end temperature is 90 degrees. Cool end is between 78-82 deg.

Its hard to offer suggestions without a better feel for the situation. When you answer Inknsteel and Simple Man's questions then you'll have better response. My BP use to hang out under the aspen bedding when I got him bigger hides. He wouldn't go in them for about a month. Luck to you
Sounds like you and I have similar Ball Pythons, Cend. :-)
Thanks,
Pyth
