I've had mine for almost eight years and he'll definitely climb on anything around him. But it's just because they're inquisitive snakes. They'll climb around on whatever you put into their cage, but all said and done they're terrestrial snakes. The heighth of your current cage would be great for a Green Tree Python or Boa, but your Ball would be happier if you turned the cage on it's side for more floor space. Your snake doesn't want to hide behind the flower pot, he wants something low, tight and dark to hide in. Remember, in the wild they inhabit rodent burrows. And your lights should always be isolated somehow, you should set your cage safety up like your snake can stand straight up on its tail.
