I've only had my mojave a few weeks and got surprised by a rush of liquid while watching tv with him in bed the other night. I immediately put him back in his tank and he finished his job (#2 generally follows immediately after). Last night I was holding him in the living room and low and behold he did it again. Luckily we got the paper towels out before the job was finished. Its disgusting but a little soap and water never hurt anyone. Hopefully your son can get used to it. I would say if it hasn't happened yet don't freak out until it does and then deal with your feelings about it. I feel better knowing that my snake feels better.![]()
