They create more places the snake can go, more places to put hides, and more ways to access different temperature and humidity zones. Ball pythons will definitely make use of branches and other stuff to climb, too. Yes, they’re terrestrial, but we’re talking about stuff that’s two feet high for an animal that’s four feet long. If the snake has never had stuff like that in its cage before, it might take a long time before you ever see it making use of it. But it’s there for when the animal wants it.
That's true...and I'm a big fan of wedging branches or driftwood into my cages for snakes to climb around on...but just saying that more floor space would be ideal-
especially as the BPs grow in size, these will be very "crowded" cubicles. Then again, maybe the BPs will like that?
