The pleasure of owning colubrids
The good thing in that in most cases they grow out of it, all of mine have (thanks good)
I have been musk by a male Ball Python, not pleasant!

Thanks for the testimonials. I love learning something new about snakes everyday!!
Just to be sure... Are you sure they weren't farts? Did the stink last longer than a few minutes?

I have pair of blue beauty that do that sometimes, as well as musking.

Nope because this nasty stuff ooozed out a bit, not feces and not a lot of it but it was like concentrated STANK! I have a pretty strong stomach having changed my fair share of nasty diapers from my kids but that smell...just YEWWWW! Took forever to scrub it off my hands!

Yes, two of the times I went to get the black rat snake out (the first week, but not since), he did the tail vibration show. It was before we switched his substrate from the shredded Aspen to a clean towel or flannel sheet. Boy was it cool to see, and surprisingly loud. I'm glad he hasn't musked again. That stuff is nasty!!
