    Re: When they go, they really do go.

    My favorite is that roughly 10-20 minutes after swapping out the paper towels and cleaning the cages, at least one of my snakes will make a mess everytime.

    I'll get 25%-50% of my snakes urinated or defecating the day after I clean their cages.

    This is also why it is important to use empty weights when tracking the growth of your BP.
    Unless they've been off feed for a month or more, I don't think they're ever truly empty.

    My Hypo made a mess last night so I cleaned it, and this morning right after I get up I heard him making noises, so I check and there is another lovely surprise smeared on the wall of his tub for me.
