    Snake Arthritis?

    OK so I know arthritis has not been proven from the cracking of joints...but yesterday my big snake was trying to get in a chair...and to prevent this I had to pull him out (since he was halfway in)...in the process I could feel his back popping like the way a human's back pops...it didnt appear to bother him, but I just want to make sure it doesnt have a long term effect.

    It felt so weird...has anyone else experienced this?

    I love my s and want the best for them
