Everyone thinks my Royal never moves from its hide but every night without fail, as soon as the light goes off he's out surfing the glass and climbing his branch for hours. Again, only doesnt do this when in shed. My Hognose does laps of its viv all day long, then spends the evening/night sat in its skull or buried under aspen.

My boa never comes out either apart from sticking his head out about 2 inches if I'm lucky!

She just sits in her plant pot , every now and then she rests her head on the log staring into the room.

No need to be sorry :) she is 7 years old now so doubt she will change, she was a little more active when she was smaller, all my larger snakes are fairly quiet.

When she is due a feed she half uncoils and rests on one of the logs in her viv, just waiting, I currently feed her every 3 weeks a med rabbit or jumbo rat . She is a good feeder not fussy at all. She comes out of her hide if she has been to the toilet and does not wantbtobsit in it. :)
