Anyone else have a "clutzy" snake??

I adore Vigo! He makes me laugh, who knew snakes could be this charming and amusing?? He likes to slide along my leg until he loses his "footing" and topples off! He seems to be determined to defy gravity by trying to climb up the side of things! I always pick him up though, I don't want him hurting himself. But he is quite curious and when he slips off of me I have to smile at him. Here I always thought snakes were so graceful and Vigo has proven what clutzes they can be!!!!

Both Andariel (my old BP) and Sprocket (my BCI) are extremely graceful in that sense. Sprocket will scare herself sometimes when she is extending out to smell/reach something and she'll lose her footing and come back to my arm/leg/shoulder as fast as she can and clutch it as hard as she can. Sorta like when pilots get home from a really bad flight they kiss the ground or thank god for being on the ground.

Neph might need ritalin - she's inquisitive to the point of being hyper so she does it all the time. Either she's snaking 2/3 of her length off the ground craning upward only to topple over or zipping down through an untucked shirt. It's to the point where you know you need to be ready to catch her. Heh sometimes it seems like she's in that awkward adolescent stage where she doesnt know how to manage the growing dimensions of her body.

hey, at least you guys don't have a 4-footer who seems to think he is 5 inches long!!

Mine pretty much sleep all day... And sleep on my lap when being held. But I've stayed up late once and caught them zipping around the cage. They look like they're having fun, so I let them be.

lol, akward BPs are so cute. My little Octavia always takes like twenty minutes to figure out which way to eat her f/t mouse. She does not constrict it at all, just noses it around for awhile trying to get the right angle. the last few times, she ate it tail-end-first!

Seymour *always* tries to start with the mouse's middle. I guess he thinks he's a lot bigger than he is. ;)
