Burrowing Boas??

[Beardonicus]

Hey everyone. I picked up 2 baby male BCIs at a show this weekend and they are my first red-tails. I went to check on them last night after they both ate a frozen/thawed hopper mouse for me:D .....and I couldn't find them! I finally saw a little black speck in the aspen and behold! They had both burrowed under the aspen and had only their little noses poking out! It was pretty funny, but I was wondering if this was normal behavior for babies? Any thoughts?

my baby BCI also does this.

lol, my 8ft 50lb+ female lives under her rug until I add a humid hide during shedding. Pretty typical, a hide should get them unburied but thats about it.

my BCI also has a hide in her enclosure. I guess she just likes to burrow :D

Yeah, I have a hide in both of their cages, but I suppose they like to burrow.

i have a hide on both sides of the tank and my small one never burrows it is always in 1 of the hides.

but when my big girl was small she would constantly burrow.
dont know why they do this.

Yeah they do, do that.

Its fun to watch.

My BCI burrows regularly. I always say that he thinks he's a Kenyan.

my BCI doesn't burrow, he's on the branches chillin
