Sooooo... i've got the deposit down on my very first BP!! He's a Mojave/possible Phantom male, and I went to the nearest herp shop (which was nearly an hour away) yesterday to go see him in person. Pretty much love at first sight won't be getting him until Christmas Eve but what can you do.. Oh well!!
so yeah i'm just really excited and will probably spam with a million photos when i actually pick him up...
just one super quick question, what is undulating and what does it mean when they do it while holding them?

Thankyou all for giving a lot of good advice as well

undulating: to move in a wave like motion; to have a wavy form or outline.

Merry Christmas! I can understand your excitement and look forward to pics.

The undulating is a squeezing effect, a pumping action so to speak. Even though the snake is gripping your arm or neck while being handled, they will squeeze harder for a few moments.

It can be a real eye opener when they do it to your neck. A little startling with a big snake the first time, but I got used to it.
