    I felt a dribble

    I had Boots out and felt something drip. I assumed he was peeing so I quickly set him somewhere safe to do so. Nothing happened. I had one little spot of liquid on my shirt and one on the floor. Any ideas what the heck just happened?

    Well, doesn't quite sound like peeing, at least not how I've seen it. Maybe you interrupted him? When my snake peed on my husband there wasn't anytime to put her back- she just let loose. Does the liquid on your shirt/floor smell? If its pee or musk it should be pretty pungent.

    Sometimes if I pick up my snakes after they drink a lot they might dribble a little on me. Is that what might have happened?

    I've had my Boa regurgitate water on me as well.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Sounds like water to me. It's happened on quite a few occasions with my garters.
