    Re: Wagging of the tails?

    Well, I've seen my pastel do this just prior to dropping a load. As far as getting nose to nose. Mine did that with F/T's as well at times. I think they don't scent the way a prekilled does.

    Re: Wagging of the tails?

    only time i have seen the tail wagging in the ball pythons is when a male was introduced into a females cage to breed and she would go around the cage and wag her tail or as Ralph Davis says leaving trails or tracks. Other than that. Never seen it

    My 06 Het albino is extremely aggressive. The tip of his tail wiggles like he has a rattle at the end...just before he strikes. That's how I know to leave him be.

    this year was the first year id seen the tail wag during breeding. Normally i dont see much of the breeding but ive been lucky to catch a bunch of locks as well as one of my females leaving tracks when the male was introduced to her.
