She shed, pooped, weighed in at 360grms  then tonight fed, She's getting lazy you have to put the food near her mouth so she just has to open it and start swallowing.
Anyhow when i put her hide over her it did not seem right anymore.
What do you think?

Funny pic. 
I have a few of the Exo Terra hides, they are ok for smaller snakes, but I find they lack height for larger snakes, unless you spend a small fortune on the largest size.
I tend use either cork bark and/or PVC Guttering (depending on whether I want naturalistic or functional decor. The good thing about both, is that you can buy a long length and then cut it to size.
I usually place it in the viv so that it covers from one the hot end to the cool end, rather than two seperate hides. This allows the snake to hide where the temp suits.

Do you not think that is a bad thing?
