Sssssleeping Sssssnakes
None of the books I have read, have covered the subject of sleeping snakes.
How many hours a day would they sleep? Summer? Winter? Hibernation?
Do they close their eyes (I have never seen a snake close it's eyes). Do they even have eyelids.?
A friend of mine had his python wrapped around his arm - motionless for a couple of hours. My friend said they snake was sleeping - but he was still gripping tight and his eyes were open. The snake had sort of tied itself into a knot with his head poked through, supported by his body (very cool).
And now the dumbest question of all - do they dream of chasing mice? Of inhabiting nicer terraria?
