So I've just put my boa back into his viv and as he slid through my hand past his mid section it mad a strange noise like trapped wind moving around or maybe he passed wind? Is this normal? Do snakes fart lol?

ok thanks!

You can feed as normal, noisy gut is nothing to worry about on its own for a slow digesting meat eater. Rat turns to liquid and gas when broken down by acid and enzymes.

I've never felt it before or with my royal so I'm glad its nothing to worry about! he's due to be fed 2moro. Should I wait a few days for it to go?

Aye stomach squelching, I also get that when I'm trying to palpate for eggs or follicles >.> really disappointing.

This reminds me of "an idiot abroad" lol. I think he's in Thailand or somewhere at a cobra place and one of the cobras farts lol. The guy who handles the cobras in it is missing a few fingers... crazy fool!!

Haha. Snake farts are one of the most surprising realities of life I've ever experienced. Dog hiccups are also quite high on the list

haha. it felt really strange like air moving about! luckily no smell this time! its bad enough with my 7 week old baby farting all day and now the snakes are at it!

Yeah sounds perfectly normal. Normally they like to do a silent but deadly, but sometimes you hear it.
Kelfezond Posted - 12/04/2013 : 22:44:09
Yes they do :)
