Hi,
i put a plastic hanging plant in ambers faun the other day, which is over the warm end and drapes around the hide (also covers the wires....)
my question is Amber has taken (all morning, I checked at 6am) to draping herself around the top of the plant, hanging all coiled up (almost like a boa does).
Is this normal or should I be more worried.
She is moving by the way.

No need to worry at all. Amber is perfectly normal.
Some snakes like to sit in their greenery or up branches/vines etc.
Some love to climb and others just want to stay on the ground.
My Cleo has a vine up high and it's one of her favourite places to curl up and watch the world go by!

one of mine is doing this as we speak she is stretched along a thin ledge at the top back of the viv. I have even had to attach vines to the vent at the back to stop her falling off lol

Loki spends more time on his plant nicely coiled up than in his hides bless him.

Sounds like Amber likes her new furniture
