Individual snake activity

[Natrix]

Hi! Guys. Question for you.
I have just three snakes left after the Radix died last month. One is a male T marcianus bred by our Gregmonsta. The second is a female Albino T marcianus this time Via Greg and last but not least and very tempremental young lady a T sirtalis sirtalis Flame.
The question is Why is it, the only snake that is semi arborial is the male marcianus. The Albino female is the least venturous while the flame will occasionally climb.
Your thoughts please.

A snakes personal preferences.

yeah my albino checkered likes to chill on his wet hide often and my erythristic eastern LOVES to be the king of the mountain in the branches

My female albino is also very shy and reclusive. I would hazard a guess that this is why we manage to find them in the wild. With such noticable colouration a tendency to be reclusive is the winning strategy. I do, in general, find that males are more interested in climbing, but even my biggest females make regular attempts to scale the heights from time to time.

My males are always more interested in climbing than my female. But my two albinos are definitely more skittish and hide more often than my non-albinos. I wonder if it's a vision thing.. It gets way more obvious when they're about to shed.

I'd tend to agree, males climb more than females, although I'd not really considered it until you brought it up Rod. Also, my albino marcianus is much more reclusive than her normal viv mate.
