I have 2 female ABT's that I have seen locking up a few times. I am positive they are both females, and they have always seemed to get along great so I don't believe it to be anything aggressive.

Ha I meant ATB's.
By "positive they are both females" does that mean an educated guess or does that mean you probed them both yourself? Someone else probed them?
Mistakes happen. If there's true locking up (which involves everted hemipenes!) then the obvious thing is that one is definately not a female.

My thoughts exactly.
I've seen males tail wrap each other two different ways - simultaneously tail wrapping each other or just one male tail wrapping the other male, but have never seen a female tail wrap another snake.
