    Hey, Crowley is a tough act to follow! You're lucky that you got him out of the chair & sofa O.K....(you didn't say how?), but my favorite is him blocking his own
    doorway & hissing at himself, OMG! That reminds me, I had a large BCI for many years, & the best thing I ever did for her was to make her a large custom
    hide that covered about 2/3 of her cage floor. She loved having such a deep cave to go into, but also loved the "second story" aspect (complete with a rubber-backed
    carpet mat so she had good traction on top) but the very best thing was having TWO doorways on the same end of the hide, so she could literally cruise in & out, easily
    passing herself coming & going. And when I first gave it to her, she kept doing that, as if very pleased with herself, and with how easy it was to cruise her cage. She
    was quite large by then (well over 7') so her body was pretty thick. None of my colubrids get stuck on themselves going in & out of hides, but they're quite slim by
    comparison. This might be something to consider in hides for boas & pythons? While they need privacy, as long as the hide is long & deep with both doors on the one
    end, it's still quite private. My boa wasn't exactly shy though; the best thing to do is try it out by modifying a cardboard box & see if he likes it? If he does, then make
    something more permanent.
