    So...bps pee when stressed...

    My girl Tokyo just shed today. Fastest shed ever. I fed her Sunday and she wasn't even in blue. I had the humidity at the norm and noticed today she was crinkly so I misted her a bunch. Well, she shed this afternoon and had a small stuck piece on her tail. Took her to the bathroom to gently get it off in the sink (which she wasn't a fan of but its better than it sticking). I noticed a crystal starting to poke out her vent and, being the science geek I am, was fascinated! I get to see a snake pee, how neat!

    You all failed to mention that there's like...a metric ton of liquid that follows that urate out.

    Needless to say I had to clean the sink. I think that crystal might have been rough because her vent bled just a tiny bit after, but seems fine now. Just wanted to share the fun with everyone

    My friend recently bought a baby pastel female...he was handling her in the shop and she was just fine but the minute he handed her over to one of the store workers (so he could pick up some other stuff) and this guy stood up and stumbled she peed ALL down his arm... She was fine once she got back to my friend, who thought the whole thing was hilarious, especially the guys reaction to the smell

    Potent.

    Sometimes their vent bleeds a little after a shed so that could have been the cause.

    Many BP's will go the the bathroom after a shed in massive ways.

    Thankfully I missed that. She did that in her tank right after. I groom dogs and cats, so I'm no stranger to being pooped, peed, vomited on or bit lol
