Someone walking around with snake turds in their hands. That was me last night. My wife pointed out that my snake had left a huge pile in her cage, and yes snake turds stink just like about any turds do. So I was just going to throw the turds in the nearest trash, in the bathroom. She pointed out that the trash was nearly empty, and the bathroom would stink like snake crap until we changed the trash. So, with turds in hand, I walked downstairs and through the house to dispose of the turds. I remember chuckling about this as I did it, and thought I should share it with the world.

Turd - a piece of fecal matter. Basically, my snake went to the bathroom and I couldn't help but laugh at the prospect that I was walking around with her "poop" in my hands. It wasn't the first time I handled her poop, won't be the last time either.
As far as what I feed her, the largest white mice I can find. She is very picky, and I can't get her to eat rats which would be more appropriately sized for her.

quality. i would have been the same, would have laughed to myself, i luv toilet humour, and collect these things called turds, so if you laughed at this you would probably love them. but im glad you shared that because it made me laugh just reading it.

Something else to chuckle about...Imagine never having seen a snake urinate before THEN realizing what is happening AS you are holding the snake. At the time it was pretty traumatic, but Kratos was literally "pissed" at us!

Haha, that reminds me of a story about a friend of mine on the golf course. We came across a wild snake and he thought it would be cool to catch it. I told him that they tend to piss when frightened and their piss can be raunchy, it's like a defense machanism if you ask me. He didn't seem to think I knew what I was talking about. He picked up the snake with his glove hand, and the snake proceeded to piss on his hand. He couldn't wait to wash his hands, and the glove was worthless because it smelled so bad. Thankfully, my python is relatively docile, and tolerates handling almost anytime, I know when I shouldn't be handling her. Thanks for sharing, glad my story made you all chuckle.
