    Re: So my Snake did something different today....

    I've had a few reptiles that do this. A couple of my T. ordinoides have done this before. As soon as my female finished giving birth, I put her in the bathtub with a couple inches of lupewarm water, and she drank until she couldn't breathe, and then caught her breath to keep drinking. When I put her back in her tank, she opened her mouth and leaked a bunch of the "water". My old bearded dragon did the same thing after she gave birth. Ive had males do it too for no apparent reason. Maybe they just forgot to drink one day and decided to make up for lost time.

    Huh, I wonder why they do that. Makes me feel better knowing my snake isn't just being weird though.
