they do have necks, for microchipping snakes covered by CITES the instructions are to insert the microchip into the left hand side nape of neck *nods*

neck? yes that's the thinner bit behind the head. nape of neck? that's pushing it a bit!!!

glad to hear he's chilling out

I wouldn't use moisturiser or anything like that really - you can buy shed aid stuff If I remember right - It does the same kind of thing really and helps for a shiny coat Nagini gets rough skin also (on top of the head and erm snake neck) sometimes as she rubs to try and get out... it's a known king trait so all you can do is give them less to rub on and try and handle them more to stop boredom. If a snakes done that in the past they're a little more prone to bad sheds around the areas rubbed.

If you can't get your hands on the Shed aid stuff a lukewarm bath and a rub down with a towel won't do any harm.

She is not likely to be getting ready to strike. Its more likely that she is making sure that you are no danger to her.

As mb said,im only weary becuase he's not been with me long and had a bit of an attitude problem when i got him due to not being handled before.
