    In comparison to my boa, my BP seems to lack in the smarts department a little bit. He tends to notice only movements, but my boa looks right into my eyes. Plus my ball python doesn't seem to get the concept of gravity.

    Any thoughts?
    Not sure on intellegence as we know it as related to any animal lacking in the frontal cortex area of the brain but they definately have instinct on their side. As far as not getting the concept of gravity its probably because ball pythons arent arboreal snakes and therefore dont do much climbing and they arent as nimble as arboreal snakes so yes they tend to fall if placed up high. Maybe you should administer an IQ test and find out.
