A Night at the Roxbury - Snake style

Hi folks!

I had to share - 'cause only you guys would understand....

I was on the couch - as my ~ 2 year old corn (who had become extremely agitated and active in the past 2 weeks) was on my lap. I was petting 'her' as my husband walked over. Well, wouldn't you know that at that moment 'she' started doing the herky-jerky dance. I stared, incredulously, as my husband snorted, then started singing the lyrics to "What is Love?"

"What?" I exclaim. He says, "Isn't that their 'Night at the Roxbury dance'? I thought that was normal."

Oh my...so unless girls get spring fever and do the jerky dance, I think our girl snake is a boy. The funniest part? 'Her' name is Lady :uhoh:

Female snakes will do the herky jerky in response to a male on top of them, she probably thought YOU were a boy!

Kind of makes you feel dirty, doesn't it?

Ha! So true!

Hmmm. So from what I'm reading from you folks, Lady still might be a girl? It's true that the jerky part came from when my hand was on her.

She was a pet store purchase as a yearling, so never was sexed. I never was planning to breed, so I didn't think getting her probed was worth the vet trip. The 'she' pronoun stuck due to her girlish tail shape as a yearling.

Hehe, 'She' was so active and twitchy these past weeks that I was joking to husband that 'she' was going through a (pardon the Trek reference) vulcan pon-farr. I was certain I was going to hear cheesy Star Trek music anyday now. :nope: Might have to hide the sharp knives just in case.:eek1:
