yip certainly is, its the added stimulation of being held that helps them to let it all go

Think my girlfriend has only just stopped laughing about it!

was pretty shocked when she did it, but the smell surprised me the most!!!!!!

Does that mean the snake is relaxed around me then? ive only recently started handling her more often.

We have had our wee snakey for 5 weeks now and he's not yet pooped in his viv.. only when being handled. You get used to the signs pretty quickly and we now have a small snake size towel on hand. We let him get that bit over and done with before playtime begins!
