Today I found my female diamond rubbing her head around her cage and along her own body ( like a cat rubbing against you). I have never seen any of my other diamonds or MDs do this. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Andy
 
uhmm.. hopefully she's shedding?.. or could be mites?
 
I see some of mine do this occasionly for no reason, maybe they have a nose itch :lol:
 
also one of my coastals likes to drag her mouse around the click clack 4 some reason
 
All pythons will rub their snouts occasionally, and as Vixenbabe says, it could just be an itch (yes reptiles do get itches). Also, sometimes after a yawn, a snake will rub the sides of their head along their body to help tuck the bottom lip back under the top lip.
