Is it normal for a snake to poo everythime you take them out of the viv. My snake will actually hold it until i take him out before doing it. My aunt has a corn and he doesnt do it so is it normal or is it just one of those things that depends on the snake. Because it is very offputting when taking him out.

When ever i take my corn out hes fine, he poops in the viv.. but every time my partner takes him out he poops on his hand lol . I think it just depends on the snake.

It could be because its nervous. How long is it between when you get the snake out and when it poos?

I try to turn the TV off when I have mine out because of flashing images and things moving quickly. He may also see the dog as a predator.

oh ok i will do that then, Also is it normal for them to be skittish when other people hold them. Because my sister holds him sometimes and he is very skittish when she does but he is fine with me.

Beech used to regularly poo out of the viv, Birch and Spruce have done it but rarely, Oscar, Peachy, Petal and Maple obviously wouldn't dream of doing such a thing! so far anyway
