I have no idea, the only thing I would suggest is to check your temps in case it's too hot. Do you have a stat?

Ive heard that snakes go into a trance when they are placed upside down but i dont think they like being upside down at first so it hard to get them upside down

That IS strange. Some sort of seizure maybe? I can beleive the trance thing, but like matty says, it's getting them upside down in first place.

Does he usually do strange stuff? He might just be a strange snake...
