    Stupid question?

    Hey there,
    I was wondering if i should be concerned that my 1YO BP does not hide in her hides anymore? She is in a 55 gal tank, heat (hot) 90-92 (cold) 75-80, humidity 65%. 3 hides lots of branches and leaves. Aspen bedding. She is about 3 ft long. Last weighed around 800 grams. If I am missing any info let me know. Thanks for your time

    Each snake is their own. Don't worry about it at all.

    I wouldn't be concerned so long as she's eating and looks good.

    In nature BPs hide in animal burrows, so what I did was build a multi-level hotel kind of thing, that has 2 openings on the bottom and holes to get to little rooms.

    The only problem with it I have is that it is hard to get them out of the hide.

    But if you are concerned with your BP it could help.

    Mine was always in his hide but now he stopped going in them most of the time he spend basking on a branch rather then warm hide.... But he is still eating for me every week which is always a good sign.. and overall he is really healthy.... All Balls are different as long as he is eating i wouldnt worry about it
