I have a young Sinaloan and I feel like its care is falling behind that of my other snakes. Not that it is being neglected. Heat is fine and feeding is on a normal schedule. I cant find a lot of info on whether they like to have branches for climbing or anything else special. Thanks in advance!

What is your cage like at the moment? A rubbermaid or properly sized aquarium is good, with pine/aspen/paper towel as a substrate,2 hides on each side of the cage and a waterbowl big enough for the snake to soak in.

I would move it into a rubbermade for the time beeing it is easer to keep a eye on the little ones and for tham to find there food in a small space and thay feel more at ease that whay ,I would use aspen or papper not pine or cider on snakes as there are to manny problems with tham Hope this helps Paul Big Hill Reptiles

He is right we could go in a big arguement about why or if pine is hazardous to a snake health, but just to be on the safe side don't use it.
If you have everything I mentioned above your snake is in a perfect enviroment.

I just moved it to aspen tonight. it has never been on pine, just crushed walnut which i have come to find out is dangerous if ingested.
