Now i don't take this too seriously.
But, the other day i was about to chuck out a load of old loo rolls when i thought it would be fun to chuck them in with shadow.
He almost immediately start to play/use them.
He has since looped himself through, slept in and even pulled one up into his high hide!

I also put his food in one to see what he would do, he was asleep when i intially put it in yet soon woke up and hunted it down and then proceded to devour his tasty snack.

What are your thoughts on this??

He is alot bigger than when i got him. Mind you i will be honest i do feed him big meals. Keeps him in his viv and stops him escaping. That said 2 rat fluffs hardly touch he sides now.

Sssid will come back. Keep the faith

He looks as if hes loving it. Ssssid has always shown most interest in the very latest hide, so cant be a bad thing giving them a bit of habitat enrichment. Hoping Sssid makes a reappearance soon, I'm missing my little slippery friend

What a sexy boy, grown loads sonce you did your sig lol! Makes me want to dump a load of loo rolls in my kings viv now, I have done it wth one of the corns and he loved it, spent forever examining and whizzing about so a bet a king would be even more fab to watch.

I think it's purely coincidence that he pulled one into his hide, the only snake known to lift/pull items to a hide/nest are King Cobra's. If anything the 'playing' (which us humans associate them doing) is probably down to new scent in his environment. I have no idea if this gives a snake enrichment. I wouldn't want to say.

What gmac said.
Kings I think are one of the nosiest snakes that people can have, so adding something more into the viv gives them reason to be nosey and then spend a few hours having a look and another check for new escape routes as well.

is not a bad idea, gives them something new to explore. Nice one.
