When u say they can "hood" does that mean they flatten out a bit and play cobra? Heard the term used before but never confirmed what it meant.

Yep, they can flatten their head like a cobra. Doesn't quite look the same, but it probably works pretty well on predators.
Here's a video of one that's a little more fiesty than mine :-)
