if she is a hatchling or just few months old i would advise not to put and branches or high things in your viv as if you have fed her and she falls this can cause regurge. just stick too two hides one either side water bowl and possibly some plants that run along the floor, there is alot ho house hold stuff that can be used aswell if you have a budget :)

Sorry forgot to mention she is 3 years old, she has a hide rock and lock that she can slither through or curl up in and a log, and a stone effect water bowl, i just want some variation so i can switch and swap decorations every couple or month to help stimulate her.ive seen some people have shelve like decorations and cave decorations just want to now if this type of deco is liked by snakes or if its more for the ownwers taste.

Kitchen roll tubes are great if she's small enough to fit through them, you can put as many in as you like so it is like a little maze All of my snakes love them.

Also, lots of people use vines or ropes and loop them around their vivs. I have vines hanging in both my 3 ft vivs and the snakes seem to approve
