Gosh, I don't know how they do it.

I used to have an upside down flower pot in my cage, not as a hide, I actually stuck a fake plant in the little drainage hole just to make it more jungly. One day, my snake was not in either of her hides, or her humid hide, so I got worried.... then I saw her head sticking out from under the flower pot. No idea how she managed to lift it with her little nose and get under it, it was a pretty heavy pot for a little snake! But she did, and she was very happy. I don't even know how she knew to TRY and lift it because it just might be hollow... the things they do when we aren't looking....
