The grossest thing about keeping snakes...
...Is when they hide their f/t prey...
And you find out later by the smell. :O :(
My corn did this recently. He is usually a great eater, and I looked around for the mouse after I fed him; didn't see it so assumed he'd eaten it... Well, I have a PVC pipe connector piece that I have in there for him to climb on. He somehow managed to get the mouse UNDERNEATH THE PVC where I couldn't see it... How he did that I have no idea. Needless to say, rotting rodents make me want to :puke:!! Snake poop smells like roses compared to THAT... Has this ever happened to you?

Worse. Regurge hidden.
Edit: A corn snake for us too...jerks.
Re: The grossest thing about keeping snakes...
Rotting rats/regurge is always gross.
IMHO though, a full grown - pissed off blood showering you with fecal matter is worse. Not only does it smell... it's on you.
