    Wow....amazing what definitions can clear up for ya!!!! So, yeah I guess the twitching movements caused by a reaction from a light touch in the sense you are referring to (as in the definition) technically could mean a loosely termed "tickle", but it's not the tickle we humans like to think of, as we don't know whether or not the touch gives them pleasure, and they certainly can't laugh! ;)

    I agree with shaffer!!
    Adam eventough u have definately have supprot behind your answers, u could be a little nicer. If u dont want to be nice to people that know less than u maby u shouldn't try to help. As for the tickleing thing, i got nothing. But could the snake feel the "tingeling sensation" (the other def) or does that go along with the external stimuli thing?? And adam if u answer this one back plz dont be to harsh, i am fairly new to the world of ball pythons, and i m an engineering major not a biology major. And i dont need some 35 or whatever year old tearing me a new one!
