So I've noticed after looking at a lot of photos here, that when many people are handling their snakes, or have them outside of their enclosures, they are usually wrapped up in a ball. Whenever I take my snake out for some leisure time around the apartment, he usually goes off wandering somewhere, or if he's on me, will be climbing on me like a jungle gym. He also does the same thing the couple of times I took him outside as well. He doesn't really ever ball up unless he's in his hide since it's nice and small.

I'm just wondering if this is normal behavior for snakes if they're just that comfortable with things around them?
