They are the storage tank of the snake world, my Royal only goes every 3 months or so and its a monster sized log. You will know it when they go.

Nothing wrong with questions about snake mess - when I got my first snakes I just didn't know what to expect and the book didn't tell me, and it's always interesting to know lol.

Yes, as others have said, royals save it up, but when they do blow ...



This was waiting for me in one of Shahi's hides on day. You can see the shed next to it, and the white lumps are solid wee (urates.) They often will go in a hide and curl up with it as if proudly guarding it - suppose they are quite proud of it lol.

Lol, yeah - like giving birth to Stonehenge!

Found an action shot on youtube -

I find the corns are the funniest - I actually caught one of mine in the act and, no kidding, she was curled round, admiring her handiwork (or tailiwork) with a pleased (and no doubt relieved) look on her face.

My goodness me, that video was mental, they can open up both ends wider than their width lol. No wonder it went to dip its bum in the water after, major ring sting.
