Of Retics and Feces.....

What is it about my male platy retic that makes him think that it's ok to SMEAR CRAP ALL OVER/AROUND/ON everything in his enclosure?!?!?!??!?!

It's like he just waits for a clean cage and then explodes everywhere!!! I've never owned a snake that painted graffiti with feces....

Ok...I'm done now....

Re: Of Retics and Feces.....

My corn snake is gross and likes to lay in her own feces so I always have to give her baths, she guards it like it's treasure.

Re: Of Retics and Feces.....

Bahaha. There was a pic floating around on another forum of a 12 foot retic that looked like a crap bomb went off in the enclosure. Lol gotta love em! Mines only about 3 1/2 feet right now so it's been fairly clean. I def have never owned a snake that poops so much.

I was disinfecting,Nagini, my big jamp girls cage last month and found poo smeared in the top corner of her cage. I don't even know how she managed that one.

"guards it like its treasure" I'm sorry but that is just funny. I can picture a feisty little corn snapping away trying to protect its booty bullion. My RTB likes to crap in a freshly cleaned water dish.

My yellow anaconda does the same to his water bowl/pool/toilet like clock work every 3-5 days. And usually in under an hour of him getting a freashly cleaned bowl. So much so he's now got a second small bowl he can't crap in so he's got clean water until I clean his bowl the next day.

the pure dwarf and super dwarf locales are said to have even faster metabolic rates. I can't wait to see what having a clutch of these little poo factories is gonna be like, lol.

Oh wow! Nessa decided to crap on Wednesday then proceeded to flip her water bowl upside down and flood the cage creating a wonderful swimming pool full of crap.

Hahah, definitely a trait most retic owners tend to (want to) forget about.

I've had one that smeared so much crap it eventually led to mouth rot. Treated it successfully though with daily cleanings and disinfecting.
