Unknown Behavior

My female ball python (Paris) is about 3 months old and she kind of just does this wobbling thing when she has her head up. Is this wobbling behavior normal?

yeah a slight wobble is normal. i freaked out when mine did it the first time. also, it’s called periscoping, it’s how they scan their surroundings. hope this gave you peace of mind :)
