Quick question for anyone who has ever kept this species. Recently acquired a male and noticed when threatened, he puffs his throat like a frog and makes a popping noise from his mouth in addition to rattling his tail. I've noticed some of my S. Copperheads puff their throats before, but I never observed this until I began keeping this species. Just making sure its normal and not an indicator of any problems.

Thank you
