Interesting question. Never thought about it, never heard of it...did something sound like your snake pooted?

Yes snake's fart - not all the time but they do. Generally loud and wet sounding farts. Generally right before a large, smelly dump. No they don't lift their butt cheek (since they don't have a butt to have a cheek for), let one rip, then blame the dog.

your kidding me..... i never heard of this. but i guess if you think about it why wouldnt they. maybe the live prey squeak one out when being eatin(you know the body make some crazy response when dead) you know like fish theat flops around even after being cleaned for the frying pan...lol

I don't hear the BP's fart much Joe but the big BCI we fostered did it occasionally especially before a particularily large bowel movement. Actually funny story but the first time the big snake did that I was all alone in the living room typing on the computer. Mike was at work, the kids were in bed. There I am in the middle of nowhere Michigan in the dead of winter in a house out by the lake. House is dead quiet, I'm typing away on BPNet when I hear this very loud, very wet fart sound coming from somewhere behind me (the snake's cage was located somewhat behind and to the side of the computer desk). Well I just froze, hair up on my airs and all that. I'm thinking "OMG I have a burglar and he's got GAS!!!!"

Spun around and jumped up...ready to defend my home and kids against this intruder who apparently had a bean burrito for dinner and there's big old Rauri (now renamed Sonja), tail curled up, having a huge dump and looking quite satisfied about the whole thing. I nearly died laughing at myself!

I was just a about to ask about this as well - sounds like my gassy BP is not totally abnormal :lol:

I didn't hear anything, I just noticed that after he passed his urine but before passing a real whopper of a poop his rear blew some pretty bubbles

gross but amusing
glad to hear it's nothing to worry about

lol; I have never heard any of mine do it, but that doesn't mean they don't, I guess. Yay for primitive snake digestive tracts.
