    Is this musk?
    Yesterday, my daughter and I went to a show and picked up a King (I think). The person we got it from said HE got it as part of a breeding trio and he had not had them all that long. My daughter wanted something with personality and this animal is really tame. Well, I thought it was just kept in an unclean cage that smelled but when we handled her this morning her vent kind opened and this smell white stuff came out. I assume thats musk???? Any info on this would be appreciated as we were told this animal would do that. If it will go away in time, I can deal with that.
    Also, is this really a king. Now I'm questioning all the seller's info.

    It's a King and the musk will stop after it gets used to being handled. Looks very nice. Good Luck with it.

    Musking is a defense mechanism that usually goes away with time, and yes it's an albino cali king.

    Yea she pretty chill, then all of the sudden the weirdest things will freak her out, her tail will flicker and shell drop the musk.....

    The more you handle it, the less likely it'll be to musk.
