I absolutely believe that snakes have personality. Each of my little ones are very unique in their own ways and I love to see it but in my experience all of these enrichment items and all that didn’t do anything for them.

I used to keep my guys in larger enclosures with branches and things to climb on and all that fun stuff and they never used them once lol. Sure at night my guy Meeko would sometimes poke his head out to get a drink and look around a little but that’s it and I didn’t see Azura at all until it was time to feed lol

I know some will say just give them the space and they will use it and even if not it doesn’t hurt, but in the case of my girl Azura she has thrives so much better in a rack system. I had lots of clutter (so many plants you could barely see in there XD) and all temps and humidity were correct but she still was very very shy in and out of the enclosure and would frequently skip meals. After switching to a rack it’s like she bloomed! She has quickly become one of my bolder snakes and always pokes her head out to say hello when I open up her tub lol.

Now am I saying all snakes are like mine? No of course not! If your snake loves the room then by all means keep doing what you’re doing but exceptions don’t make the rule lol

I give my guys hides still and some fake plants as well and they have plenty of room to stretch out and move around if they wanted to, but as for enrichment items or toys or something I don’t because I know they won’t use. Yes I recognize and love their personality and don’t see them as some unfeeling creature but I also understand them and know what they need and what they just don’t care about
