They are deffinetly capable of hanging from their tail if they choose to...thats what its for. If what you claim is true than all the arboreal snakes who hang from their tails and eat would all have dislocated vertabrae. I am not forcing my snake to be in that position..he did it himself...he is perfectly capable of coming back up on himself if he wanted to.

And i'm not holding him by the tip of the tail either
