    An odd one


    The entire rest of her body is out and she doesn't have mites the vet cleared her three days ago. She is the wierdest pooper I have ever seen! Anyone else have a snake that 'uses the water facilities' in their tank like this?

    Maybe she's trying to be sophisticated? I've had one of my collection "use their water" only once. Much more icky IMO, the smell was something else.

    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    Happens a LOT! Some animals seem to prefer only pooping in their water dish for sure, and as smelly as it is it does make it easier to keep the cage clean!
