    Never seen that B4!
    Hey guys something happened today that freaked me out...
    I was cleaning out my BP's tank and had him around my neck while doing so like I do all the time. All of a sudden I felt something wet down my back and arm I look thinking he had used the bathroom on me, and to my surprise it was coming out of his mouth. Has this ever happened to any one. I think it was water cause it didn't smell at all and was clear. Any info would be great thanks guys!:)

    Oh wow- that doesnt sound good... I've never had it happen, but I know if I did I would take him/her right to the vet!! Hopefully someone with exsperiancce with this will post soon... Good luck!

    Sounds like a RI to me, Ive never seen a snake regurge water or drool.... Does the snake blow any bubbles or breathe with its mouth open?

    No I couldnt hear anything from his mouth and no I have seen no bubbles. It wasn't a little drool water or whatever it was a bit

    If he just drank before you picked him up -- the water will come pouring back out - it's not a big deal. If you'd had him out for a while before this happened then you might want to be concerned - keep an eye on him -- but I'm betting he'd just been hitting the watter bowl before you picked him up. :gj:

    Not sure what that is but personally if it was my snake I'd get him to a vet just in case.

    Then like if ya picked it up just after it ate it "tossed its cookies" so to speak on ya.. But just water..
    I would not blow it off.. But I would def. watch very close for any other signs of poss. RI.

    Wouldn't be a bad idea to have it looked at any way. I have caught RI's so slight that even my VET was shocked.

    With a sick reptile better safe than sorry.
