So I know I bother you guys a lot.. I don't know who else to ask.



So this has been pretty consistent, but not all the time.



Basically, whenever I go to get my snake out of his cage to handle him, he goes straight to his tree hide, and I lift it up to get him. First.. Is that wrong?

When I go to get him anyway, I always use a snake hook.. Just in case.

Lately however, he goes quite literally into the top corner of the hide if I try to get him out, and I can't get him out from there. I'm not going to force him or potentially hurt him.



Is this normal behavior..? I don't know what to do.
