Answer
Hi Dustin,

This behavior is completely normal. snakes spend most of their time in their hide boxes because its dark and they feel safe and secure in there. Snakes are nocturnal animals anyway, and so will be inactive in the day and mostly active at night when you're asleep.

I hope this helps,

Andy
