Snake Farts....

[Minkness]

Recently I read a post where someone said their snake farted so loud it woke them up. I wrote this off as total BS and moved on my way past that post.....Then....last night....it happened...-que dramatic music-

Was snuggled up in bed, fast asleep when I heard it...a massive, wet sounding fart! At first I though it was me or my dog, so turned the light on. Dog was next to me in bed, so I looked around a bit and it happened AGAIN! Now I knew it wasn't me, and my poor dog looked scared. I didn't want to believe it was a snake....so I got up and checked everyone's enclosure. Crestues were all eating the fresh food I put out, leos were sleeping, MBK was coiled in the open of her tank, the hognose was in his favorite place not moving, nothing smelled off and everyone's enclosure was clean. So...I turn my attention to the tub on my floor that houses my jerk of a BP. I think to myself...no...way....but slowly I creep forward, carefully unlock the latches and pull off the lid, afraid of the possible carnage within. Sure enough, in a lovely not so little pile in the corner, a fresh poop. I just cleaned his stuff out the other day and had checked on him earlier that night and all was still clean. Wow....my BP just farted/pooped so loud he woke me up!!! It just close up his tub and figure I'll clean it later (1:30am when this all happened). So I crawl into bed and try to get back to sleep. 10 minutes later, I hear it AGAIN! I jump up, turn the light on, and look in his tub again, and he's just curled up in the middle starting at me, ready to hiss and show displeasure should I try picking him up (which is why I call him the jerk). Nothing was in there this time though.

I will be checking on him here in a bit again since I will be starting my cleaning rounds and know his needs a scooping.

Has anyone else experienced this before? I seriously didn't think it was possible but have now been proven wrong.
