Thanks MF,

He is pretty sweet. He is like that most of the time in his enclosure. When I take him out he will sit there in my lap for about ten minutes then slowly start to unwind. Slowly wander around. He is not flightly or nervous in the least. Just a really even-tempered laidback snake. I think he just feels more secure in that position.

I have his sibling clutch mate and she is on of those snakes that as you are opening the enclosure she is out with her head and neck around the forearm.
