    T.s.concinnus Posture

    I've notice something strange in the posture of these awesome snakes.
    When they are relaxing/sleeping their bodies seem deflated/flatter. They even do this weird twisting thing when I hold them.
    My other snakes never look this way. The height of their body changes very little when they are sleeping/resting.
    Anyone else notice this in their concinnuses.

    I will try to get a photo of what I'm talking about.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Ember, when he relaxed, would feel more like a limp noodle which also made him look a little flatter than normal.

    Concinnus specific behavior? Looks like we could be on to something! Let's see what Richard says.
