I have had 2 ball pythons and when i pick them up to clean their cage they decide to "pay me back" for disturbing them and release the flood gates! But its an interesting thing to see! It is just kind of gross!
Is it normal that they pee and poop on one particular member of the family all the time? Ok well this happened twice. My daughter and I are new BP owners. He is about 10 weeks old. He has eaten twice for us and shed once. After about 4 to 5 days after eating my daughter was holding him and he released all over her. 6 days after eating my daughter was holding him again and he pee'd all over her. No poop this time but it only seems to happen when my daughter is holding him. It doesn't happen every time she holds him.

Is it possible the snake doesn't like something about her? Or is nervous when she holds him? I think it's pretty funny when it happens but my wife hates the smell.
