    Babies are def worse in my opinion!!! With snakes (for the most part), its just one big lump sum. With babies, most of the time its loose and ALL OVER THE PLACE!!! Oozing out of their diapers at times getting all over their clothes and up their backs!! Not to mention when your trying to clean them up they are tossing and turning all over the place!! And dont even get me started on when you think that they are finished pooping and you go to change them and they are NOT done yet.......bad news, haha!!! As far as the smell goes, both are pretty horrible!

    Re: Cleaning tubs vs changing baby diapers

    Snakes: spot clean 2-3 times a week, deep clean/sanitize once a month.
    Babies: deep clean every few hours.

    Note: generic unscented baby wipes work nicely for spot-cleaning plastic tubs once the soiled substrate is removed. I follow up with a damp paper towel to remove any remaining detergent from the wet wipe.

    I would rather clean tubs all day long lol. I've changed a lot of diapers when I've been babysitting and some of them are absolutely lethal.

    Re: Cleaning tubs vs changing baby diapers

    Well here is a little perspective.... I have been pooed on by a snake before... It hit my shirt and fell off and I cleaned it up and changed my shirt... No big deal. My son on the other hand was able to pee on me from 5 feet away when he was first born and the one time he pooed on me I had to clean him up, clean up the explosive mess he made all over the floor, take a shower, change every bit of my clothing, and not puke in the process...... I will take tub cleaning over diaper changing all day every day.

    I would also like to point out that it is much more rewarding to spend time with my son than with my snakes. Nothing in the world compares to getting cuddles from him and when he says "I love you daddy" it makes anything worth it.

    True, and once the kids are older you can spend time with them and the snakes simultaneously. My daughter holds the BP's while I clean out their tubs.
