I would take almost all of your rocks and sticks out of the enclosure and add another 7-8 inches of substrate. I personally don't add anything with sharp edges like rocks or rough decorations just to minimize risk. Just take it slow with her. They are simple creatures, and over time you will learn to understand their behaviors better. If you have just purchased her, she may be stressed, and that could be a reason she is on the wall in the first place instead of settling into a hide in the bottom. Speaking of hides, I can't tell if you have one from your photo. I would go buy one of these from a petstore that you can put in the cage with her after removing other unneeded additions. It will make a very simple hide that she can retreat to if she feels threatened.

  • glass tank with mesh top. glass is a poor insulator for heat, and all that air flow with the mesh top allows both heat and humidity to escape.
  • i assume by log you mean a half log like this, which is not an adequate hide [without modification] because they are too open and leave the snake too exposed.
  • is your UTH regulated by a thermostat? what type of thermometer[s] do you use, and exactly where in the enclosure do you measure temperatures?
  • the enclosure should NOT be in direct sunlight. your BP doesn't need direct sunlight, and you're basically creating a greenhouse which can quickly become way too hot.
  • you shouldn't be using a fogger. going back to the first point, air flow is your problem with humidity. you're also creating a damp environment where your snake can develop scale rot. depending on what type of substrate you're using, this can also create a huge mold problem. you don't live in an arid climate, so you should be able to maintain 60%+ humidity with just a large water dish if your air flow is properly reduced.

    let's address the basic issues with your setup before thinking about making a five story house for a BP.
