    Potty Trained?? LOL

    Is it too much to hope for, that our baby BP is "Moss-hide Potty Trained"?? ha ha Of course, im just joking. but she has gone in there to shed her skin. And now to poop. lol Obviously, i know why she went in there to shed. but I was surprised to find her poop in there, and happy at the same time- much easier to clean up

    Also, she appears to be a "neat freak" like me. She lets me know the tank is dirty, by trashing the place- knocking things over, etc. Once I remove the waste, she's content in her hide again.

    Years ago with my first ball I got it acustomed to being free roaming in my room. I kept a 20gallon long in my closet if she was hungry or poopy you would find her there everytime, other wise she would be lounging on my window sill at night or in the back corner of my entertainment center durin the day. She was a picky eater but always healthy and clean sheds. Granted knowing what I know now compared to what I knew at 13 I would not do that again regardless of how healthy a snake was in that set up.

    They do tend to develop a predictable routine after a while, especially when it comes to preferred pooping areas!

    Like you said, makes it easy to clean up.

    I can usually tell when there is a poop as well by the state of the tub. It's like they tear the place up trying to find a place far enough away from their mess, lol

    Mine tend not to go in there hides. Ill find poop and urates in one of the back corners 99% of the time. Usually as soon as im done spot cleaning the mess and close the tub up they come charging out of their hide to inspect my work and flip their water bowl.
