My babies came in today! I placed them in their enclosure and they immediately burrowed into the substrate and haven't been seen since.

This normal?

Yes, that's perfectly normal. They come out...eventually. I would leave them alone and check on them tomorrow. These are nocturnal snakes and seek dark secluded places. Tonight if you're up several hours after lights out you might see them exploring their new home, but don't be worried if you don't. Make sure you have a hide of some sort for them.

Nightshade,
...This is pretty normal behaviour for little BRBs. They are secretive nocturnal snakes. Too much activity and light and they will go into hiding.

I fed one today, the other is in shed and really didn't like being bothered! Other than this, not one sighting!

Geesh! These critters are too pretty to hide all the time!
