    Re: Ball python still trying to escape

    Okay so i did modify the log in the end and did everything quickly with a saw, though it seems i just freaked my BP out.. If that's so, i feel really embarrassed for my mess, though i really just want to do the best for him even though he won't ever understand that. In less than 10 mins i put the log back in and he didn't seem to be interested in it anymore, he just tried to escape for some time again and then gone back to hiding in his other hide (a cave). He is now always staying on the hot side, is it normal? In fact he is always warm to the touch. He is still always alert, but he doesn't put his head out of any hide anymore like he would do with his old log, showing that he's ready to eat. He now only has his head out when i am near, when i open the tub lid to change water in his water bowl, and then he tries to escape. He does that always- i am near when he is hiding, he looks around, comes out, tries to escape and then goes back to hiding after about 20 minutes (he tries to escape without me too, but mostly when i am near he has motivation to get out). Is that okay? He has lots of corners filled with bush-like fake plants, he has even one of those on his cave, and the leaves cover up the entrance a bit making it seem like there's extra protection. I really don't want to make him nervous with my presence anymore, if i am the problem that freaks him out, so maybe i should act nonexistent for a few days at least,then i'll try to feed him
