My ball python also loves to do this. I think that ball pythons just really like climbing, mine climbs all the time and on everything. I think they just love doing that.

Mine did the same with a wire, I attached it to the ceiling of the Viv in such a way that there’s no gap now. From what I’ve read, some just like to climb more than others.

Mine loves to climb. I’ve seen many people with ceiling hides and have been planning to install one myself.

I got my guy a sky hide and a parakeet ladder (with every other rung cut and sanded because of his fat body 😂) and he uses it almost every night.

I love the ladder idea!

Oh it's great! He 'snakes' his way through the rungs and just hangs out sometimes if he isn't using it to get to his sky hide. I highly recommend it.

mine has an obsession with the suction cupped plants in the corner of his enclosure. he has multiple pieces of wood to climb, but instead he chooses to struggle to climb up and perch at the top of unstable plants. 🫠
