    Nasty Pied

    I haven't had this guy long, but it's the second time I've found him all curled up with his excrement. And of course being all white, you can see it when he smears it in himself. I suppose that can be good or bad depending on how you look at it.

    Anyone else have a snake that does this? My other ones typically move to another hide when they foul one up.

    None of my BP from work does this.. They usually move away from poop to another hide like you said.
    Maybe someone else knows why that kind of behaviour.
    Have to notice the Nokia game mode position he is in

    I have never had them lay in it except when breeding. Some of mine like to play with it though and it always seems to be the white ones. LOL

    Maybe he thinks he laid an egg LOL. He seemed upset with me that I made him move so I could clean up.

    I guess the light colored snakes are trying to camouflage themselves. They know they're pale.

    That's an absolute stunning snake but he'd look ten times better on some dark substrate such as Orchid bark or similar IMHO !

    Oh man that sucks LOL! All my bp's move off their waste, especially poop, and try to get as far away from it as possible.
