    Re: Rubbing head against things when not in shed?

    As far as the popping or wheezing or what not, nothing. No signs of an R.I.

    He ate a med/large rat today and after a few hours came out and started rubbing his head against everything again.

    I'm ordering the herpstat tomorrow, until then i have a thick layer of aspen and papertowels to protect him from the heat.

    Maybe he is stressed?
    Sometimes after they eat they'll get a piece of substrate in their mouth so they'll rub their face/mouth around the enclosure.

    I've had some of my snakes lay on their backs/sides after they ate just like in that photo, so that just might be why.

    I'm sure your snake is just fine and it sounds like you're caring for it just perfectly .
