Potty trained!
I totally potty trained my snake tonight. I saw the sausage butt, so I gave him a bath. Then i held his rear over the toilet and wa-lah! LOL Who knew it was that simple? Just point them at the toilet and they go! I'm a genius.

Re: Potty trained!
So when the snake shows up with a newspaper, you know what to do.

Re: Potty trained!
Keepers have been using baths to get their snakes to poop for years and years.
You missed the bus on this one.
Congrats on figuring it out though.

Re: Potty trained!
Mikey i mean i DID get on the bus this time! It was just I was proud I aimed him for the toilet hehe!
And clearly, I noticed the sausage butt, then gave the bath, indicating i knew it was coming!
I'm sure you take a nice warm bath when you have a sausage butt, too mikey.
bwaha!

This technique would also help Mykee become more "regular" in his BMs.
