Sand boa climbed!?!

[Bogertophis]

I'm glad I'm not the only one!! I've never seen him do it in the almost three years I've had him. Do they eventually just go down? He looked like he was squished so I was trying to save him....

Did we mention that snakes are "sneaky"? Some snakes (like these) usually cannot get down without falling, & actually falls CAN do some damage*, so they're
better to prevent when & if you can. But you can't prevent them all, either for your snake or yourself, that's just "life". (Snakes like corn snakes are so good at
climbing -partly because their scutes are "designed" for it- that they can sometimes get back down without falling. Not always though.)

*Where I used to live there was a pet store with a large boa in a huge walk-in cage...the "store mascot". The enclosure had several logs, about 6" diameter, that
were angled & installed well above the floor (4-5' as best I can recall, but may have been higher?) for the snake to climb on, which he did. One day they found the
snake had died, & the vet who did the necropsy said he had gangrenous tissue apparently from falls off the branches. Just "for what it's worth".
