If you could post a video of this behavior, that would be helpful.

Sometimes when a boa doesn't feel like they have a grip, they will wildly twist their body (including their heads) in an attempt to find a grip.

If you flip the snake upside down on a flat surface and not in your hands, can it right itself?
