so everytime my snakes has a "bathroom break" its always when shes out of her tank in the bath, on a towel, and was taking some pics the night and she went very still was chuffed so started taking some snaps and i look back and yes shes taking a dump on my bed but never when shes being handled, only when shes on something else, anyone else have a snake that wont go in the viv, and what can i do about it if anything?
i could try leaving her alone till shes been but its like 6 days after feeding, shes a right wee pain in the...

i think you will find they only poo when active so when are they going to be most active why of course while being handled or in a bath.

warmth of the water and the stroking relaxing motion of them being handled is gonna stimulate them to go for a pooh/wee.. its the same as with lil kids if they are constipated warm bath and rubbing of the stomach always seemed to help wake up the urge to go.. same with these guys i have found with my big corn that a few mins chillin on a couple of towels on my bed relaxing having a stroke i get to his tail and just stoke on top and below it because of the firm downward rubbing.. he is guaranteed to go everytime.Havent quite figured out my royal pooh n wee pattern yet as shes being a right royal pain in the toosh.. but ill sort her. :O)

Mine's te same. She'll only ever poo when im holding her or when she's in the bath. Luckily ive learnt to read the signs so that now when she starts pooing i can hold her away from me slightly.

Bella's good at that too. She especially likes to use her freshly filled water bowl as a toilet. *sigh*

Now that I think about it Kellog is fairly regular, if I can judge it after 3 feeds and only 2 handles since feeds (as he fed today). Both times he happily deposited on me the first time I handled him after feeding him. Seems to only do the one proper poo after feeding, never find anything extra in the viv. Is that normal? xxx
