Question Is Enzo trying to escape at night?

So I may totally be over thinking this but I feel like Enzo tries to escape at night. I fact, he's doing it right now! Haha he always gets up around the edge of his viv, where the top meets the lid, and snakes around... Usually he falls, as I just heard him do right into his water bowl. Lol anyway is he just exploring or could he be trying to get out? His temp is around 76 F at night but I didn't think that was too cold... Sorry if I'm rambling, I'm really tired... I'm going to tighten the locks on the lid though just in case...

Yup, he's trying to escape. My corn did the same thing...still tries, but is way too fat and ends up falling down and making an awful racket. It's not personal. It's just what they do

A lot of my adult Milk and King snakes do the same thing, they will cruise along the top of the background probing for weak spots. I have an adult hognose that pushes very forcefully all along the top and makes a lot of noise.
