Climbing snake "massage" feeling?
My 650g Mojave yellow belly likes to climb up and sit on my shoulders. Sometimes he sits there and moves his muscles like he's trying to massage my neck.
what is he doing exactly? He never constructs enough to hurt me or act like he's trying to eat me or anything.

It actually feels really good on the back of my neck. Ahaha.

Re: Climbing snake "massage" feeling?
I love when my big normal male does this! I think because our neck is so warm they are just trying to get all the heat they can so they do their weird massagey thing lol. That's all I can think of :p

I could use him right about now...sitting here staring at computer screens for 12 hours at a stretch is not doing my neck any favors...

I know that feeling. :/.
luckily Thor is friendly and only ever wants to be on my shoulders. I get away with being snake massaged. Ahaha.

My little guy does this too. I think he is trying to hold on! He sometimes wraps around my neck and hooks his tail onto himself. Very odd feeling, kind of tight as well (obviously he can't/won't hurt me - just hanging on for dear life)!

Re: Climbing snake "massage" feeling?
I thought someone once told me it's how they pull heat off of us? I notice my girls always hang out on my neck when cold and go into masseuse mode!
Another reason I can't understand why non-herpers don't like snakes... My dog has yet to come over and massage my neck, I'm just saying.

Mine do it also. I think they're just adjusting their balance.

I always thought it was the moisture on my skin that didn't allow them to move properly. He almost feels stuck to my neck. I do appreciate the message, though.
