Is this behavior strange to you? Someone tell me what's going on with this guy.
Bryan just started acting like this a couple of days ago. He acts uncomfortable, as if his upper body/neck is irritated and he just can't get situated right. It's a little subtle, but I've had this guy for 8 years, and I know him. This is not his normal self and I'm hoping there's nothing wrong, but take a look at this video and tell me if this is peculiar to you.

looks completely normal to me..? just wandering around inspecting his surrounding. this is how my girl acts, mostly at nights :) I wonder if its because they don't feel threatened enough to hide? or they are just more active at nights.

He looks normal to me, just curious and active

maybe he is looking for food? maybe what you are giving him isn't what he wants? lol

No one is suggesting anything. Obviously you know your snake better than anyone else, but (in a vacuum) the video you posted doesn't look like there's anything going on with Bryan at all. I'm sure the reason you're getting defensive is because you're worried about your baby - that in itself speaks volumes about the care you give to your animals. Of course keep an eye on him and keep us posted, but from what we can tell from the video this all seems like normal BP behavior.

Maybe you should read the responses again. Not one eludes to you just getting your snake. Don't get mad at us because we don't see a problem in the video.
I'm sorry that you think something may be wrong but your asking people who have never been around your snake. You asked for opinions and that's what you got. If you really think something is wrong your only option is to see a vet.
Getting bent out of shape may keep people from giving you their opinions in the future.

Eric Alan assessed the situation accurately earlier, and it has been acknowledged already.

Yes he and I had similarities in our post and some differences. Thanks for noticing. I see you picked up on the advise I gave you. I won't do it anymore.
