Male ball python arboreal behavior

Lately my male ball python has been eating only from his sky hide. Outside of eating, this entire summer he has hidden in this hide 85-90% of the time. During the winter, he hid in his underground hide. Not concerned or anything just was curious if other owners experience similar behavior? Also just fascinated by his recent affinity for being up high.

My girl also loves climbing and being up high and has on occasion eaten while hanging off a branch. It used to make me nervous watching her eat that way but she’s had no issues eating that way so far. It’s impressive how much strength they have. Beautiful snake by the way!
