You're completely right. I just get frustrated when people ask things like "why does my ball python hide all day??" when that's just the basic behavioral pattern of ball pythons. This forum is amazing! Every time that I would Google a question regarding BPs, this forum would come up. I never knew to cover 3/4 of the sides of the enclosure for hatchlings to feel more secure until a few months ago. Thanks to this forum, I have a cute bp that is thriving![]()
