If she wants to stay in the tank, I'll let her stay in the tank. If she wants to chill when she's outside of it, i'll let her chill. She chooses, I just help

    I should mention I have other ball pythons that are perfectly happy being snakes in a ball sleeping in a hide and that I don't think every ball will be active. I'm only saying that some balls are active, and we just need to learn to work with what they like.
    ...I'm sorry to say that's a clear cut sign your husbandry is off and the reason she's trying to escape is because she's stressed. Not because she wants to go for a walk in the park. Snakes do not = dogs.
