it because corn snakes, king snake, milk snakes, etc are more active than the ones that get fatter and bigger like ball pythons
she is the sweetest snake i ever seen, almost all bigger snakes are more lazy
but collubrids (corns and stuff [i don't know how to spell it right]) i guess when they get bigger the become less active.
FYI sand boa's only get 1 foot, just to let you know
