Hello,
I am going to go to a possible problem before I tackle the "Entertaining" topic.
Many times when a snake becomes active beyond normal circustances it can denote a problem in its enviroment such as temperature etc... stress! What are your cage temps, does this snakes have 1 or 2 "secure" hiding spots... is it in a high traffic area? What type of beeding are you using? Mites? if you answer no to these and cannot or have not discovered anything else that may be the cause of this then I would look to other things such as things for it to climb on etc...
