I think that sidewinders have special scales on the underside that allow them to grip the sand and move easier. And they must have very well developed muscle to move sideways. The reason why they move sideways is so they get around quicker because it allows them not to deal with shifting sands. Some other topics you might want to look in to:
How their eyes cope with the dryness, how the young can handle harsh desert conditions, their scales, their diet, and how they cope with little food and water for their young and themselves. You also might want to look in to whether they are good mothers or not.
