What do you find most amazing or surprising about your BPs or snakes in general?

Just looking for some personal stories.

As a first time snake owner I am finding so many things that my Baby does that are beyond anything I ever imagined a snake would be like. What did yours do that blew your mind and addicted you?

Thanks,
Mike

How little care they take, after all setup properly of course..

Yeah, getting the setup right can be a trick while learning.

I am really looking for behaviors. Things that would seem un-snakelike to someone who hadn't experienced it. Since this is all new to me I am constantly running into things that make me go wow.

Well some would say it is me projecting a personality. However have 2!

Elizabeth is our normal and she is anything but normal. She has quite the personality. She I believe that she thinks she is part human. She loves being out of the cage with us and has a special spot she loves to hang on each of us. She also loves to hang out on our table while my son does his homework. She hangs under one of the candle holders on the table...sticking her head out and seems to look at his homework to ensure that he is getting his work done. It is pretty funny. The other day we were sitting and she had crawled down to my feet that were up on a foot rest and hung out there off my foot looking down. I happened to look down and the 80 lb dog was below her...she looked as though she was trying to figure out how she was going to get it down her throat. The look she had was priceless.

I could go on and on about her and funny stories....

Then there is Henry the bee....who I think might be a little mentally challanged at this point. OYE....lol he just turned 2 months so time will tell. Hopefully he will not be such a dork when he gets older.
