Those wood cages are very beautiful, congrats on that.

I went into the naturalistic phase some years ago, trying to get more natural looking cages for rosyboas, kings and a boa constrictor. The process was enjoyable, and I learned alot about the benefits and limitations of the specific materials I used. In the end, the animals did no better in naturalistic vs sparse - something I wanted to determine for myself. Either approach can work extremely well as long as the key environmental conditions are enabled.

I consider snakes as opportunists - they will happily use anything that serves their purpose, whether it is hole-ing up in a piece of washed PVC pipe from Home Depot or taking refuge in a realistic-looking fake rock structure.
