    Question Ball python burrowing???

    so i noticed that every morning when i would wake up i would see all of the sub strait would be dug out all the way to the bottom of the tank. I didnt know what was going on till last night i looked in and saw him like burrowing in it... is this bad or does it mean anything... my temps are good around 88-91 on the hot side about 82 on the cool side and an ambient temp of about 79.... he is kept in a vivarium with a undertank heater on his hot side but also a heat lamp over top on the cooler days... humidity about 45%

    Just make sure that the bottom of the cage over the uth is not to hot so your snake will not get burned if it burrows to it and stays for awhile. Some snakes burrow some don't. From what I know it does not point to anything being wrong.
