The rotting smell of dying snakes. When I was around 10 or so, I had a few snakes in the home and went on vacation for a few weeks out of the country. Parents told me they had people to come over the weekends and take care of the snakes but that was just a lie to keep me happy. I come home after a few weeks and all the snakes are dead, rotting. The putrid scent filled the whole house....

Awe, that's horrible man.

Rotting regurgitated rats that I happened to miss, yellow anaconda poop, and a poor spiny tailed iguana at Petsmart that I wanted to look at because he was in terrible health. He bit my knuckle and his lower jaw broke in half, there were what appeared to be some sort of larvae/maggot looking things in it and the smell was incerdibly retched. I nearly threw up, and I've got cast iron stomach.

My almost 8' female JCP dropped about a liter of liquid poop onto the middle of my living room floor. It was so rancid I nearly dropped her. Had to open all the windows and clean it with bleech. Horrible horrible horrible.

So what is your the deal with snake smells? Do you have some sort of weird fetish or maybe a mental cap that keeps you from remembering how many times you've played this game?

Hmm, why are all of your posts about smells snakes produce?

Seconded. I used to catch the garter snakes where I grew up (we called them water snakes, because I grew up on a lake, and they were *always* in the water.) It's a familiar smell, so it's not soo bad. It doesn't make me want to upchuck- but it is a pretty strong.... deterrent from getting e'tten. They thrived on the lake, because predators didn't want anything to do with the musk.

Perhaps I'm weird, but I like the natural smell of my snake and his tank. You know, when he hasn't pooped in it. It's calm smelling- for lack of a better description.

Ah, what exactly is that natural snake smell like? And how much worse is it when the snake poops?

Also, what's the garter musk smell like? I still have never smelled it myself.

Thanks!

Sort of smells like raw sewage, a sticky urinal, and somebody lighting a match.

My king snake went to the bathroom right over where his heat pad is under his tank and it made my room smell like cooked snake feces... I was gagging like crazy. This is probably so mild though compared to the people with big snakes. I feel so bad for the people that have to clean up after boas or large pythons *shutters*

Guessing your the guy who lost a bet to his friend about snake musk? Wasnt ine thread more than enough?

When a troll got into my snake room and scared the crap out of all my snakes at once. Smelled like you won't believe between the troll and snake poop. So that why i now keep a can of troll spray in my snake room.

First smell of troll and i am spraying. Plus it comes in three sent Winter Snow, April Rain and Summer Breeze so your snake room can always smell like the great out doors.
