watery discharge....

so yea, a while ago, 3 weeks or so, i was handling my Bp in my living room, not after eating, or anyhting, and it released a watery discharge with some white soft urate onto my lap... maybe like 2 or 3 fluid ounces....
skip to tonight, took him to meet my parents, put him back in the small plasitc travel enclosure, and took him out before leaving my parents house to check on him, he had the watery discharge with soft urate again, ths time in the little tank, it kinda smells like urine anywy but i jsut wanna ask this time, never seen it in the tank tho......any ideas....

i would think its urine. i was handling a mexican black king a couple weeks ago and had the same thing happen to me.

He's peeing on you ... his way of saying "leave me in my @#!# home where I feel safe and warm!!!"

:D

on another note, i also heard that some snakes do this more than others in a way to place there scent on you, or as a defence trait. any truth to that?

I believe doing that in a defensive manner is calling musking? I could be wrong.

not really sure about defensive cause he did it in the little travel tank yesturday, not while he was in my hands...
hes not at all afraid of me, hes never bit, he doesnt fight back when i try to take him out of the tank, and hes relatively active when i hold him.

:laughing: You've been marked!

It's official now. He's not your snake. You're his human!

Sometimes you've got to take the icky parts with the good parts of having pets.
