I know I've mentioned this topic before but I now have video evidence to back my statements, whether you believe it to be affection or not I will always think it is and my heart melts every time Crowley does this. I know there are a lot of mixed feelings about this topic but I wanted to share my experience, keep in mind I've put a lot of work into this little guy and it's payed off.
The video is of Crowley being very cuddly and affectionate with me. He keeps giving me hugs and is being so very mushy with me. He lets me pet his head and give him kisses on the head and chin. He stays on my nose like he's giving me a hug and stays in that position to hold the hug. If this isn't affection then I don't know what is. Crowley makes it very obvious that he loves his humans.
I have put a lot of work into this little ball python, starting from having 20 minutes out a day when he was a baby to gradually going up to 4 hours out any day he chooses to come out, which is pretty much daily except for after eating and shed time. Crowley is the most spoiled snake ever, he has his own room to go roam around in, he gets so much love and attention and he just loves it.
Here is over 15 minutes of Crowley showing affection to prove it's not just a short video with a little coincidence that he landed on my nose making it look like a hug. He actually goes and stays on my nose to give hugs and does it multiple times throughout the video.
