Can You Tell When Your Corn Is About To Poop?

Well I have a Candy Cane & I can see sorta thru him. iykwim? He has started to poop one time on me & I was able to tell & ran to the faucet. Not sure really how I knew..I think it was the way he was acting. Bein' still & kinda popping his tail like in an upward move. I can also see dark stuff in him. What is this? :rolleyes: He also has pooped one time on the carpet.

So I am wondering if there is any other clues. Like the longer you have (own) you corn the better you know when its goin' to happen. Or is there a day or time when they do it? :shrugs:

I guess we would like to be prepared when it happens again. :eek1:

TIA,
 
Usually in the viv they raise thier tail, before they poo.
Once we were taking pics of my big amel he kept constricting my hand and arm hard but not painful. My hubby wanted a pic of him around my neck, never again, he got around my neck and pooped and peed down the front of my shirt and moved his tail and the remainder went in my shirt. YUK it was awful. susan
 
I was holding my snake and I saw her squeezing and ran over to her tank and let her poo in that! So sometimes yeah!
 
If I am holding Leeroy he will usually jsut stop and look like he's concentrating real hard........ and then he poo's

ahahha as funny as that sounds its true. Kade just freezes and im like uuuhh ooohhh once his tail starts to lift he is in the tank or on a towel lol.

I think he really likes to poop on me, actually he is never really out in his tank (even at night he is not out much) So I think the movement and excersize does it. Correct me if im wrong but they usually have a bubble but when they have to poop. There is a bump right above the cloaca.
 
7 has poo'ed on me several times. Twice recently I have caught the signs in time to grab a napkin, the signs being the contemplative pause then the lifting tail. Like Nomed, I have the impression that the handling encourages the pooing. I am also getting the impression that 7 is a little larger near his vent when he is ready, so I have learned to keep a napkin nearby when I see that.

The last "incident" was the most interesting. 7 was stretching out from my hand towards my shirt pocket. I had never let him explore my pocket before and I was curious; would he curl up inside? He dove head-first into my pocket, made a U-turn at the bottom, and came completely out again into my other hand in one fluid motion. It was a few moments later that I felt 7's pcoket-bottom gift soak through. Ugh. :)
 
I am not sure why but I find poop and fart stories halarious. Snakes ones even better! I'm a little bit Terrance, a little bit Philip.

If I happen to be around when Jo poops she stares at me first and I'd swaer she looks apologetic, "Oh terribley sorry old gal but I fear I must poop now. Be a lamb would you and pass me a tissue?"

Then she poops and takes off right really quick, like she's trying not to smell or touch it or something. It's not too smelly though. I'm babysitting 2 boston terriors right now. They fart so often, like it's thier job. My kitchen stinks so bad I've had the stove hood fan on for 2 days!

I have been pooped on more times than everyone I bet ya... Its a case of, I handle a snake, I get pooped on.

I now have a "poop bucket" on hand at all handling session and it gets used in most cases... Things to look out for:

Slowing movement or stopping completely
Contracting of the muscles at the vent
Lifting of the tail
A serious look on their face
And a bulging vent...

I find this so much better than cleaning snake poop out of vivs everyday. In fact I often encourage them to poop out of their vivs by massaging their ventrals. Works every time ;)
 
OMG this thread turned out to be pretty funny, despite me bein' serious about the 'poo'. LOL

Ok will look for those signs...& will try the massage...lol :eek1:

Thanks,
