Whenever I hold my BP, she makes almost zero effort to make any sort of grip. She'll sometimes wrap her tail around a finger, but for the most part she doesn't hold on. When my boyfriend holds her, she always wraps completely around his hand/wrist and is generally a lot more active.
I do hold her a bit more often than he does. I just worry *a little* since I've read that poor grip can mean poor muscle tone, but I've also read that it could mean the snake is just comfortable with you. I want to think she's just comfortable with me because I think she falls asleep on me too. She almost always eventually stretches out on my lap and stops moving/tongue flicking.
So, is she a happy couch potato, or should I keep poor muscle tone on my mind?
