My pastel did this for the first time today, and in both hides:

Would this be usual and down to her hides being a tight fit? She's also been lying upside down a couple of times which I've heard can be down to ovulation although she's not been near a male yet! Anybody else get the same things?

most of my snakes push the substrate out from inside their hides so their sat on the viv floor.
as for the lying upside down from what i know it can be a sign of ovulation, do you know if she's been with a male befor you had her?

Nope she's never been with a male, I've had her since she was a hatchling. I've seen them move a bit of substrate before, just never like that, even the kitchen roll under the substrate was gone.

Nope not yet but here they are, Bumblebee is around 900g, Piebald 400g


Thinking of breeding my Pastel and Bumble this year, do you think the hatchlings would sell easy enough?

Yer I thought I could shift any bumbles, killers or super pastels, it's the normals, spiders and pastels I thought I'd be stuck with.
