All bp are different so you may not see the same results as me. Defiantly use 2 of the same hides with an enclosure that open and big, lots of fake plants and stuff to. People that don't use hides or only have 1 hide have there snakes in a tub in a rack so they feel secure already. With regular enclosures like I said above they are more open and they need the security so another hide on the cool side helps them cool down there body temp without being exposed. If they don't have that option they may stay in the hot hide and never get the chance to cool down bc of the lack of security. If the rock hide you have isn't snug on your snake she won't feel secure either so if it's to big you may need to buy or make a snug fitting hide and wait until she grows into the one you have. Another option is if the rock hide is a little big you can stuff it with sphagnum moss or news paper to make it more snug. As far as the coke box one not being sturdy there's tons of things you can make hides out of, just be creative! Sounds like your doing a good job, more questions you ask and more advice you take the happier you and your snake will be!

Again thank you guys for all the advice, I'm really feeling easier for it. Right now shes curled up under the coke hide under the red bulb. The temp is a little high so I lifted the lamp up a bit and opened my window. Theres not much else I can do so late at night. Tomorrow though my uncle is visiting to take a look at her tank. I'm thinking I'm just gonna go ahead and put her in there. It'll be less of a hassle than the tub. He gave her her rock hide and new water dish but I don't think he has another similar hide, at least not one the same size. I only bought one plant so far but I'll see what else I can do. Her rock hide might be a little bit too big for her, so I'm gonna stuff some wood shaving bedding in it so its more of a snug fit.

I think once I have her in her tank, things will be a little easier. As silly as it sounds, I'm just really nervous about not taking proper care of her. Everyone says they're so low maintance but so far its been a lot. Once I have her in her tank and everything, I'm planning on letting her rest for a week or so (expect for wendesday when she needs to feed) and see what happens next.
