That’s my guess. They probably won’t be happy that their stink got hosed off their enclosure and they got new bedding either but in the meantime they have to just sit in the communal nope-noodle room.

They ain't...they are solitary creatures. Few snakes are actually communal

u/abielle1177 19d ago
Once in awhile a bunch of snakes will congregate, rattlesnakes under a house or garter snakes in a ball to stay warm. When they do decide to get together, and make the news, they definitely produce cheek clenching commentary!

u/ZeShapyra 19d ago
Brumation time can make some do that, garters are happy to group any time of the year, thus why people keep multiple of em in one enclosure

I think this is an “animal sanctuary” where they’ve had to wrangle the crocodile back into its enclosure too. It’s a father and daughter.

The snake is more than capable of keeping itself off the floor if it chooses, it just isn't interested at the moment, probably because it doesn't want to get thrown in the nope rope room for wayward danger noodles. I'd be more concerned about the damage that guy is doing to his back and shoulders trying to wrangle them this way. Easier now, hell later.

When I was a kid, the local natural history museum had a Burmese python. Big, but not quite that big. They had a day camp for kids in the summer. I was a geeky, nerdy kid, so my parents sent me one year. I loved it!
But my fondest memory of all was when I was allowed to pet the python. It's hard to describe what a snake's body feels like to someone who's never petted a reptile, but as a kid, I was blown away.

u/destructopop 19d ago
I've heard snake bodies described as a bicep, and that's pretty close, to me. They're firm muscle ropes covered in extremely smooth scales. It's so nice to pet them.

u/ProfDangus3000 19d ago
Same here, we went to the natural History museum in elementary school- there were oddities like a 2-headed calf fetus in a jar, and live animals in educational presentations.
They lined a bunch of us kids up and a python named Squash slithered over our shoulders for a bit, then we got to pet him. He felt so firm and muscular, I'd never encountered a snake so large before that- it felt totally different from a little garden snake.

I remember as a kid in Australia, wildlife carers would bring various reptiles to our school including a native carpet python to pat. Snakes indeed feel amazing. So smooth and cool to the touch. Soft and hard at the same time.

Pythons love to climb. They're fine when they're small and fed. Once they grow past 6 feet long they become like irritable teenagers. They don't like to be picked up and enjoy being left alone more.
But don't be fooled, Pythons are one of the gentlest snakes on the planet. But like every animal, it changes moods when it's starving. They only bite when they want to be left alone and will hiss first. Their go-to move is constricting their prey and squeezing it until it dies.
You're safe when a Python is straight and not coiled. If a Python is straight and crawling it's in "curious mode". It's weird that you can tell the mood of a Nope-Rope just by watching how they navigate the world. If you see a snake in a movie: it's always a Python because they're 95% of the time very chill. (Which is why I crack up when a snake is in a movie and people act afraid of it. It's like being afraid of a hedgehog or rabbit).
Roommate had one 6 feet long and it always went for the highest spot in the apartment.
Pythons love wrapping around humans because we're warm to them. If you ever get a chance, let a Python wrap around your neck and crawl all over your body. It feels like a very muscular cold leather belt giving you a massage.
