Snakes such as glossys live in sandy to somewhat hardpacked desert areas. They rarely if every come out in the day(lite) but are active in the ground and make their living in the ground.
(day and night) They occasionally move on the surface at night to move to new areas, hunting areas, mates, etc. But do not make a living on the surface. The key to understanding them is not deep substrate, but instead, what kind of deep substrate. They do not live in any kind, like all snakes, they have preferred types, and preferred conditions to live in. Glossys are very particular about type of underground conditions
What I have learned in the million years(reptile years) of keeping is, when not given the proper conditions, soil types, depth, humidity levels, and FEEL. they simply ignore it and do not attempt to fix the situation. Simply put, in nature, they come across all manner of conditions. They seek certain conditions then use them in a instinctual way. So, wrong soil type or condition, they ignore it, right soil type and condition, they play it like a violin, like they have been doing it for millions of years and they have. End part 2
