I've had hatchlings do it shortly after they were out of the egg. They usually stop doing it after a week or so though. |

I had the teeniest weeniest MBK in the world and it musked like nobody's business. I'm well used to the less glamorous aspects of animal care at this stage but musk is Gross gross gross! |

I'm almost certain corns don't actually musk. As said, kings and milks do, my king has never on me but without fail after a clean out, he will do it in his viv to make it smell more homely I guess for him lol. I'm sure if corns could musk, you'd hear health issues about the musk gland being blocked. I thought my hatchling corns did, but I am guessing it was some kind of weird hatchling poo. |
A very special super, duper thanks for K :3 |
