Welcome to the site!

The movements you are seeing are just the way snakes move, nothing to worry about.

It looks like it's just his muscles as he crawls? Mine do this especially when they are wrapped tightly around me and want to move, their body almost looks like the are walking like a caterpillar, but without the feet. Looks normal to me.

All is Ok, that's how snakes move :)
welcome!

frank has been with us over a year now, its not normail muscles... i meant in the video you see it at 0:05 - 0:10. it looks like something is trying to push itself through franks belly downward...

i uploaded new video where you cna see it better at 0:12 - 0:13. please look again, it looks really weird.

its hard to see it in video, but its about one cm area that tries to push itself through franks stomach... just like in alien movie :(

thanks for replies though :D

Do you feed live or frozen thawed?

always frozen thawn rats /mices. i warm it slowly in refrigerator and then in +39c water.

Hi,

It is just the muscular wave going down his body to push him forward. :)

Honestly nothing to worry about.
