    can the pee smell like 'stain' the snake?

    so i finally got up the nerve to hold Kiziah for the first time in a while, and like she smells like piss... its nasty, so when i finally got her off of me, my hand smells like it to... whats the deal? is this something she will keep smelling like? or should it be gone by her next shed?

    Re: can the pee smell like 'stain' the snake?

    When i first brought my male home, his entire cage was F-O-U-L, and he smelled like it tooo, but once i sterilized the cage and gave him a bath, there was no more problems. Hope this helps !!!!

    just give him a bath, let him chill in luke warm water in the tub for 15 or 20 mins and clean the enclosure out.... Ive had that happen before and after the bath the snake didnt smell anymore

    ehh, ok...
    shes my difficult child, so that will be interesting... i spray and wash the tubs each time she pees, because she just has paper down... so that generally gets rid of the smell... but i think she sat in the pee a little before i saw it... icky
