I have a Juvinille corn.... she was 16 inches 3 weeks ago when i got her and has since shed. I have her in a 20 long tank with many hiding spaces but i have her on Reptile carpet, in her hides she has moistened moss and it seems that every other day she will either be in there or wrapped around the this one stick on plant where shes at the very top. I was wondering if it is normal for her to become semi arboreal or is it because she doesnt have a true place to burrow?
If its because she has no true burrowing area... is this unhealthy for her? the only thing i could think of is that she might be stressed but shes a fantastic eater and has never bitten me, she striked once when i didnt give her enough time to smell me but thats it.
So basically... do i have to go to aspen bedding or bark? or can i keep my reptile carpet... i enjoy being able to see my snake instead of digging it out to see it
