Albino cali king. She's been behaving odd lately. I added a handful of aquarium gravel a while ago and she's always digging in it and rubbing her face on the rocks. Doesn't appear to be going into shed either.

I'm stoked too, Justin. Unfortunately it'll be a while till i can get it cause of unforeseen work shortage :(

Try pulling the gravel and tossing in Aspen Bedding.

The entire floor of the setup is aspen.( shown in picture 2) ;)

I simply just threw some gravel in for the hell of it and now she picks pieces up with her head and pushes them around... Its weird. Do snakes get bored i wonder?

some of my snakes will push their substrate into piles with their heads. i dont know if its boredom or if theyre just trying to dig their way out. I notice this behaviour mostly from my little pair in the sand but once in a while my mbk does it too.

She is lovely! Any chance she is gravid? Maybe you can add more aspen to the enclosure and see if it's just that she wants to burrow. Burrowing is a natural behavior for lots of snakes, some more than others. Being gravid is also a possibility.

I'm going to associate being gravid with being pregnant? - she's never been in contact with another snake as far as i know

Shes probably curious about it since its new. Probably wondering whats under it or perhaps instinctually looking for prey under it. Just a guess.
