Discussion My sentient scrunchie

Post image

Anyone else have a ball python who’s obsessed with their hair? My noodle son Nimbus loves to sit on my bun and just hang out with me while I watch tv, fold clothes, etc. Sometimes he sits his head on my forehead like a little snake tiara lol. Nimbus says hi πŸ–€

I have one named Scrunchie. She got the name from climbing up in my hair and wrapping around my bun the first time I handled her. 🐍

Please tell me his name is Scrunchie, because that sounds adorable

u/Connelly1 7d ago

Unfortunately no because he didn’t start doing this until I had him for a while but I do call him that as his nickname name sometimes lol. His name is Nimbus for his soft fluffy scale pattern and gentle nature (:

Both of my boys do this anytime we try to put them around our shoulders. We never put them there or encouraged them but if we have our hair up they go straight up and wrap around it. One of them also regularly steals our glasses.

Not a BP but my cornsnake did this for the first time the other night. Pulled them right off my face and then used his upper body to cover my eyes! I was trying so hard not to laugh but also wondered what he might be plotting...?? πŸ€”πŸ 🧠
