So Oatmeal decided to take her meal this way today. I guess whatever works for ya girl. Guess it is time to install a perch or two for her.
Yes that is a f/t rat fuzzy and yes it is missing a leg 🤷

My Corn has taken a pinky or two hanging upside down from the temp probe cable for her hot hide. I just offer to her and she takes it no problem.

Seems most snakes will climb when given the opportunity, some are just better at it than others.

Young bci's love to climb. Definitely provide the option. To be honest the only species I would not mind not providing climbing opportunities for would be a blood python - other than that I'd always stick some branches in to give the choice...

I finally put together my BP's enclosure this weekend, and I stood one birch log up against a corner just in case she wanted to climb a little until I find a more suitable branch for perching.
Well, lo and behold, not more that 30min later, there she was, head towards the top and tail at the bottom. I ordered some cholla branches for my four vivs this morning, I've been looking at them for the past few weeks, so they'll have better perches in a week when they arrive.

My bp liked to climb when he was a tiny noodle.
Oatmeal was in a tub so I didn't put a perch in. Now that she is back in the AP I've added 2 perches and she is loving them.
