Sounds fine to me. You'll learn to read your snakes. Like my 2 girls will go curl up under a pillow when they have had enough 'fun time'. Rosey my 7' girl will actually crawl back to her cage and crawl back in as her cage is the bottom on a stack about 8" off the floor. My little male is only a year old and I've only had him about a month or so. So i'm still learning him but so far, he is really mellow and just stretched out on me and stares at the floor most of time while sitting on me lol.
