Does a mother snake stay with her young forever?

It really depends on the type of snake. An Anaconda stays with her hatchlings until they are about three hours to three months old. Even snakes that don't take care of their young still care whether the hatchlings are safe or not, therefore a mother snake will find a warm, safe, and protected area for her eggs. The area between the roots of a bush is a perfect place for snakes to lay their eggs. This area provides warmth, safety, protection, and even a supply of worm for the hatchlings until they are able to leave the safety of the bush's roots.

Will a kingsnake shake its tail?

Yes. The King snake will shake it's tail at you, sorta like a rattle snake shakes it's rattler. I am pretty sure it's not like a dog wagging it's tail, saying "hey I'm happy/exited/nervous/.

It is a warning. When the snake shakes its tail it is simply telling you "I'm not in the mood for whatever you're about to do", "so either do it and risk getting bitten, or pooped on, or wait until I am in a better mood, and not shaking my tail at you!"

That's what I've got. If someone else has a better answer, so be it.
