kinda worried about the waterfall and my bp's behavior?
Im still not sure if this is normal... but ALL day my bp (Ivy) has been behind this exo terra waterfall + fogger.. now i know i should be patient and stuff but tommorow is feeding day... and setting up this waterfall when the hose comes off the pump is a major pain in the butt.. it takes me 30 min to get it right..... so i dont wanna reset the stupid waterfall just to get her out to feed her.. what do i do? any opinions ? should i turn it all off? XD

What other hides do you have? Your BP might feel more secure there than in the hides. This could also be a territorial issue since you have more than one snake in the tank (I'm assuming that this hasn't changed)
Could you post a picture of your set up?

You really don't need the waterfall... so turn it off I guess. I don't really see the problem, sorry :/

Your python staying in one place for long periods of time is pretty normal. If you can't get it out without disassembling the whole thing, you might want to re-think your setup, as it's good to be able to access your snake wherever it is.

I have that same waterfall, and my girl LOVED to hide behind it. She even hid IN it when I didn't put the basin cover on. The only way I could keep her from going behind there is to stuff the open space behind there with paper towels. After a couple tries to get back there, she eventually gave up and started using her normal hides again.
Long story short, if you don't want her back there, just block it off.
