Liquid Urine?

[Hydrolicious]

Well, firstly, I want to know if it's normal to urinate when being held(he did it all over my shirt) if they're nervous. Second, this is the first time I've seen liquid, it was lightly tinted yellow (some of it was light green, but mostly light yellow)and didn't smell very bad. It also appeared that there were a few brown chunks in it(he recently passed a BIG one, so maybe they're leftovers). So, can they pass both feces and urine simultaneously?

[JLC]

Yes, yes, and yes.

Yes, they can and will pee when held. They don't regularly musk like some colubrids, but they're not particularly discriminating about where they pee.

Yes, it can be liquid. In captivity they should have fresh water available at all times...so the body will have extra liquid to pass...not all of it turns into the more solid urates.

And yeah...they can pass poo and pee at the same time.

Great, I appreciate the assistance. I change the water every other day, so that's not a problem.
Glad he's not sick.

Since they have water available whenever they want it, they don't have to conserve it like their wild counterparts do so you get solid and liquid.

these creatures only have 1 hole at that business end of things.
thank goodness my mojo girl has never peed/pood on me or my kiddos.

It is actually a good sign that you get solid urine (white lumps) and a fair bit of liquid. That is a well hydrated snake. Sometimes there is a lot of liquid and very little solid urine that is a really well hydrated snake.

Snakes are basically a tube of muscles most of the internal muscles that mammals have snakes no longer do (like a diaphragm that is done by the exterior muscles squeezing the ribs from the outside.) same for excreting any activity that uses large amounts of muscle groups will often lead to excretion (like shedding) having a snake out often will cause it to use muscle groups that will cause that to happen.

My cinny girl isn't a very nervous one, given she has a super aggressive feeding response and will nail anything the second it hits the tub. But every time someone picks her up, she'll urinate on them. Then explore their hand, never balling up.

Well, I have been pee'd and pooped on about three times now . As a matter of fact I hold all my BPs with a towel in my lap. Let me be the first to confirm that snakes DO PASS GAS when they are taking a dump...
