    BP waste forms

    Was opening up my bp's enclosure recently and noticed a puddle on the turf under his hide. I know snakes generally excrete dry urates, but can they also "pee" like that? It was on the opposite side of the tank from the water bowl and had a yellowish tint to it, so that's all I could figure it was.

    They can indeed pee in liquid form, and my snakes usually pee in liquid form AND leave urates on top of that.
