My snakes sometimes take weeks to poop...in my Mojave male's case, he tends to cook it for a month before turning his tub into a swamp. No need to wait for pooping before handling...and thus far none of my pythons has ever pooped on me. Now the Milk Snake...she's another story altogether.

I like it when my snakes track me with their eyes...my Cinny and my Dumeril Boa do it the best, but the new Pastel I have zeros in on my face whenever I open his tub (I'm not handling him much since he's still acclimating to his new home) so I bet he'll be like that, too. So long as they aren't prepping to strike, I find it adorable.

Congrats on your baby, btw! Slither is very cute.
