My ghost has been moving oddly. I first noticed it back in March, when he was breeding my female. He seems to get himself tied up in knots when I hold him, and doubles back over himself sometimes while moving. He doesn't seem to have trouble getting to where he's going, though. It's kind of hard to explain. Here's a short video clip of the behavior:

What do you guys think? None of my other snakes seem to do it?

He looks fine to me.
It just looks like you weren't supporting him enough and he is doing what you are saying because he is trying to find something to hold onto. Mine will do this too if you don't support their bodies well enough. That's probably the only problem.
