My ball pythons don't shake their heads, but they do sometimes turn away very pointedly when I offer second helpings. I think it's just a weak version of hiding their heads when they feel threatened, but it really looks like "No. Full now. Go away."
I have been keeping my camera handy whenever I feed recently, but they have not been doing it for me lately, they just eat right away instead, sorry guys!

That was my original impression. If I had a substrate that could be burrowed into I think I'd find that it was just a technique to hide his head under the substrate.
I'm feeding tonight and will try to shoot a clip of it. My guy is liking f/t more and more so he tends to strike pretty quick. But maybe tonight I'll catch it.
I just uploaded some pics from my Galapagos Islands trip. I think they are worth checking out.
