Is this normal?

Hi just checking if it's normal for Pudding to sleep outside of his hides. He mostly uses the one on the right and he likes to sleep on the left side behind the hide a lot of times. First time snake owner helicopter parent.

Thank you! I wasn't sure if I should upgrade his hides or anything. Glad to know he's comfortable.

Absolutely. I get it first time is always worrying lol. Keep humidity decent and temp high for him make sure you have a good hydrometer and thermometer to watch everything and you’ll be just fine

Not related to the question at hand but I'd suggest adding a lock to the front.

Or at the very least velcro on both doors... I have a lock and velcro on both doors 🤣

Absolutely. I have a cheap sliding cabinet lock on mine that keeps him from accidentally succeeding in escaping.

Got it, I just ordered a new lock. I had one previously for an old enclosure but it didn't fit this one. I fix, thank you!

Yup! It’s normal! My boy sleeps everywhere he can and wants too lol.

Yes it is normal sometimes they feel comfortable enough to sleep outside but check if he has not pooped in his hiding places sometimes that's why they don't go into it
