OMG he was wagging his tail....

LOL! That sucks, Emily!

I've seen corns rattle their tails before in an attempt to scare me off (fat chance!) but I've never seen a ball python rattle.

When I did see tail wagging, it was like a slooow swiiiiiiiish swiiiiiiiish swiiiiiiish

Very cute!

I posted something like this a long time ago when one of my little ones did this to me. I'm pretty sure she was trying to let me know that she didn't want me cleaning her enclosure at that time. Never seen it since but I'm always handy with a camera now if it does because I thought it was so awesome.

That sucks. My corn has done "the poopy dance", this was different though. More just tail wag than whole body wiggle. He has so much personality though, my goofy boy.

usually you will only see this in females during breeding season, have you sexed him to be sure or was it just sold to you as a male?

my bp does it almost every time she eats I think if you look more carefully they probably do it everytime

Oh, now that is funny...

If what your snakes are doing is what I'm thinking of, it's called Caudal luring, and snakes generally only do it when very hungry. I've caught a couple of my snakes doing it once or twice. Here's a video of what I'm talking about.

Similar to that, but slower. More swish than flick. :D
