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

Yeah I dont follow the 48 hour rule, I follow the 48 hours + wait for the poo rule (at least 2 days maybe 3), once he has gone for a poop the risk of smelly fingers is reduced though not totally gone, they always have a special reserve dump for special occasions.
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 |

Posted - 21/02/2011 : 23:47:59 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 |
