I ordered a male Spotted python who's about 1 yr ols (in july), like maybe a month ago. Lately when he gets all worked up over being handled(as he's not use to it)he started making this kind of clicking noise. His throat puffs up(right behind the jaws), then deflets, kinda like how bearded dragons puff out. When i touched it, it didn't feel hard, but like normal fleshy... flesh. Could it be that i'm just squezing to hard and not realizinf it? Or is it something male spotted pythons do? Or is he sick? Tring to locate a vet that deals with reptiles.
