Apparently you're thinking this snake does a small corkscrew movement on the floor of the cage. This snake will slither normally outside the cage with it head tilted slightly. When in an enclosure it will follow the wall of the cage up to the ceiling, of the cage, and across the ceiling a bit and down making a large circle. It then rights it self immediately. The owners of the snake also told us that most of the time it lays coiled or against the wall of the cage, just like any other boa would. The only thing wrong with this boa is that it's blind. It's been blind for 8 years and it eats, sheds, deficates, and anything else a healthy boa would do.
We were only able to observe this boa for about 30 minutes, in a cage, to see this corkscrew movement it does.
So apparently you have a very different idea of what a "corkscrew" movement is.
Exatly what do you consider a "corkscrew" movement in a snake?
