    This is not really a concern, more of a curiosity. Sometimes while handling my BP he will tighten on my hand or arm, like really tight, and i was wondering if this is pretty common behavior. He never hisses or acts aggressive in any way when he does it, just squeezes really tight for a second or two then releases. I'm sure it's not because he is frightened, every time he has done it i was sitting not walking around or anything. So is this a sign of frustration from him or just something BPs do?

    Mine do that too...I assume its because they want to feel secure on their perch (my arm, hand, head or neck)

    x2 It's completely normal behavior. Your bp wants to make sure he doesn't fall or accidentally gets dropped.

    I have felt that before, or sometimes the massaging ripples from their body... I always thought they were trying to feel the warmth from my body :)

    I've had the same behavior from a couple of mine. I've even had a neck massage from a BP that lasted a good 20 minutes.
