    BP Squirting Water???

    Hello.

    So my female albino, just took a long drink of water. After I opened her door a bit later after that to check on her, she got startled, and started kind of... gushing water out of her mouth and nostrils? She didn't seem to have an RI before drinking, but I'm still kind of concerned, and keeping an eye on her to make sure it isn't one, or doesn't develop into one. (It seemed like it was just the water though, it didn't seem like mucus or saliva, if that helps.)

    I've never heard of a snake doing this, so it really freaked me out. Has anyone had a similar issue, and should she be okay?

    Thanks!

    It's only serious when snakes get enough practice to be accurate & squirt us. LOL, just kidding! You just startled her, apparently.
