Yep that is true

and the thing is, if you have Snow or pale corn, you can see it close to it's cloaca, but don't think too much until they constrict and just shoot it out lmao

That is also only true for young snakes, once they mature, they lose the opaqueness of the skin, and then you cannot see it.

you can tell on all snakes when they are ready to go, the shape is a dead giveaway, so not true just for light coloured snakes

If I waited til they pooed Id hardly ever handle them lol. Peanuts favourite trick is to wait until I have put him into his feeding tub and then have a huge smelly dump before eating his mousy - a kind of empty then fill up again. How he can stand to eat when trapped in a tub that smells like that i will never understand

Least he poos on your leg, not his meal.

i know i know..... but took the advice of the guy in the pet shop( i know silly me ) said its fine after 24 hours... guessing i'm going back to following the 48 hours rule.

shoulda waited the 48 hours after feeding!!!!!
danny28490 Posted - 21/02/2011 : 22:44:45
