Depends on the snake. I have one that likes to sit in a fake tree 95% of the time. Some sit on top of the substrate more than under. But as a rule the majority of mine you can expect to see a head at most while they sit and wait at their ambush hole.

Their positives are their hardiness, ease of care, and handlability. My 4 year old and 6 year old boys get them out of the cage and play with them all the time without incident for the snake, kids or parents! Good snakes.

My little liberal tree lover!!!!
