It's a cool setup to make, and a lot of fun. Since balls aren't very arboreal, you can set up a second level in the cage using some corkbark wedged across a corner, and just fill that up with orchid bark or moss. Use a couple hefty rocks to wedge the corkbark in, and viola! Second level.



I've done this with kingsnakes and cornsnakes, and the corkbark ledge witheld, but I haven't had a chance to try it on one of my adult balls yet.



You can see the idea in my tarantula cage - it's a short ledge, but it's working perfect for her (she's built her tunnel right behind the corkbark):
