Not exactly sure why he does this

Hello, So the last few times I've held my BP, He's been doing this hugging/constricting type of thing around my arm or my hand. He's not agitated or scared when he does it, and it's normally after a little bit of being held, Maybe 15 minutes or so. I don't normally hold him standing up, laying down or sitting is more common for me. His body shifts forward then back against whatever he's holding onto and keeps doing that for a little while, he sniffs around and watches little things that catch his attention but seems very calm, no hard breathing or quick movements. Does anyone know what this could mean? I haven't had him for a very long, just about two months. Thanks(:

He's just found a spot he likes and is just sort of chilling out. Not much more science behind it than that.

mine does the same thing around my wrist. She loves acting like my bracket. She will wrap around and move back and forward and tighten up and release and just repeat that. I think it's just the found a spot they like. Almost like a cat when they paw a blanket

The tightening/constricting is just him holding on and securing himself [emoji4]

Probably likes the warmth.

Mine does that when my wife holds it on her left arm it wraps around her bracelet.

I had my new ivory around my arm just below my elbow for 45 minutes last time I handled and he would not let go until I put my arm in his enclosure and then he unwrapped and went in his hide.

My blast is the same way. Little noodle seems like he doesn't want to go back in his tub. He likes the warmth.

My butter does the same thing when I try to put him back in his cage. He seems to want to stay out.

He's just warming himself up. Next time you handle him use a temp gun on his underside to check his temp and then check it again when he stops doing that. You will be surprised how much his temp will go up.
My super pastel does this as soon as I pick her up. Gets herself really nice and warm and then explores for a while. If she cools down then she will do it again and then go and explore again.
