    What're you... Why??
    My little Cinnamon female that I've had for 2 weeks decided she wanted to constrict my hand. She's about 3 or 4 months old and 121 grams (about) but anyway, I took her out of her tub and set her in my palm like I usually do. She then wrapped completely around my hand and started squeezing. She was trying her hardest to squeeze my hand to death.. I think. Her head was bent to the left sharply and when I touched her head she didn't shy away like she usually does. When I touched her sides, she tightened up a bit I gently got her off and then she wrapped around a finger: http://i1165.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8e74f128.jpg

    It doesn't look like it but she was squeezing as hard as she could. I hadn't handled any rodents or anything like that before picking her up.. I finally eased her off the second time and she sat in my palm calmly before I put her almost immediately back in her tub. What's up with her? Her mouth was also resting on my skin. I expected her to open it and bite but she didn't

    Shes holding onto you. Theyre not arboreal snakes. If someone picked you up and carried you around wouldnt you want to hold on tightly?

    Yes and I thought of that but this was the first time she's done it and she was climbing all over me the other day.. I've never had a snake do that to me before

    She was holding on. And when they are small, they aren't as long to get around your hand. She was using her head for leverage to move.

    She was hugging you because she loves you so much!
