Thanks everyone! My friends aren't "snake" people, so when I show them they don't care much - it always feels good to show someone who can actually appreciate it!
Chester hardly uses the hide, to be honest. Sometimes he is in there, but most often he is under the substrate. Most of his life he didn't have any hides, so I suppose he learned to burrow under the substrate. He's very good at it now! There are times when he manages to hide his entire body!
