Well said Meg.
Even if he's warm, the cute little python, boid, or lizard that's all curled up in the palm of your hand is not being docile. He's terrified and in stress. Young lizards, even terrestrial species, climb when they feel threatened. Young reptiles sit very still as a defence (camoflage). A reptile at ease is a roaming reptile.
