Lazy IJ Carpet

I've had my girl for 2 years now, and even though there are plenty of things for her to climb on, she spends about 80% of her time on the ground. Is that normal? I mean sometimes at night she'll play around at the top, but for the most part she's curled up in the back corner.

I would say its pretty normal, our IJ's and most of our Morelia for that matter spend a good deal of time hiding and curled up under things. I have noticed that if you check on them in the middle of the night though they are cruising around and out and about....

Thanks! I was just under the impression that they were mainly arboreal.
