I’m doing an RP but I need some visual to help me. I made a quick design for @bettsplendens‘s Blackspark. Then a height comparison for future reference. Since he’s ventablack I saved the lines separately :0

THIS IS AWESOME.

(and, especially considering the description I gave, amazingly accurate. Just add a couple dozen knives sticking out all over his back, basically)

Oooh, google image search dominican red mountain boa! It’s awesome. (you’ll know which one in particular I mean)

SNAKE BRAID 

SNAKE BRAID

SNAKE BRAID

What the fuck?

actually yeah please possibly explain or point me towards someone who knows why these babs are braiding themselves together @why-animals-do-the-thing ?

I have absolutely no idea. It’s time for @wheremyscalesslither to shine. 

This is an entirely coincidental thing. The snakes are in close quarters which means they easily become entangled. The snakes are stretching out towards something desirable- be it heat, food, or something novel.
They did not “braid” themselves on purpose- and if you look it is not a perfect braid.

These are all hatchlings and it is common to keep them in such conditions until their first shed.

It’s a fairly good braid, though, which is cool. And I’m glad the snakes are fine and haven’t been put like that for some weird reason.
