I wonder if someone just dethawed a mouse in there and the snake can smell it or if the snake has watched that happen enough times that it thinks the microwave is some sort of mouse vending machine

Or they’re nuking chicken. Snakes this size generally eat rats, chickens, or rabbits. So if they’re making chicken then that could get the snake interested.

I've never had a snake, though I did help take care of one we had in our HS biology classroom. I know feeding them frozen mice is common, and some people thaw them in the microwave, but it makes sense a snake this large would need something more substantive than a mouse.
