Male ball python tail wagging

One of my males (Desert pinstripe actually, maybe it's a pin thing? XD) tail wags sometimes too. He has really only done it when he is super excited about eating though. Like a dog. Haha.
I was also incredibly confused but somebody reassured me that some males just do it.

Maybe he's not doing it to try and entice the other male (the reason females do it), maybe he's trying to put his scent down to tell the other male "Hey buddy this is my space" sorta. I know ball pythons aren't particularly territorial but they do show aggression towards other males when they're trying to breed. So I would guess it's not out of the realm of possibility. Just a thought :)

Rain would be nice. In retro spec he may have been tail wagging at the scent of my pastel girl. I was cleaning tubs and so the scents of all the snakes were all over the place. Maybe I'll put him in with my pastel and see what happens

Well the pinstripe probed male. Time to try again

I don't know how to say this but……Your snake is gay

I'm terribly sorry. I know how hard it is to hear that your son is gay but you can pull through it. You just have to support him.

I just laughed so hard when I read that. You guys are hilarious
