Hi was wondering if my snake was gona strike or is there somethin wrong here??
I noticed my royal was in a kinda striking pose(s shape) but her head was shakin like when you make a fist and your arm shakes sort of thing (best way to describe it lol)
She is eatin well pooing well and has just began th shedding process.
They do bob their heads specially when they are scared, threatened or excited but they also have an odd balance system that causes them to sway a bit when their chin is off the ground.
She is just tensing up because she is scared, dont worry about it as long as her head isn't twisting and looking up etc then its almost certainly normal. You soon find once she settles into her new house she will calm down, start eating and then you can get to hold her and this calms them further.
no it certainly aint twisting etc i hav seen a few videos on you tube of snakes with ibd or whatever and what a shame i@d be gutted if that happens to me
shakey head
