In Reply to: Gas?? posted by Lucas on April 28, 2003 at 20:44:47:

my black blood was soaking herself during a shed and I walked in to see her taking a poop, and lots of bubbles as well.I quess reptiles too can have gas.

:Well I was at the pet store today and usually I will go in and help out the reptiles that are normally neglected. But today was a little different. There was a blood that I had already tried to help shed but never got it off his head. Once I put him in the water he kind of started convulsing and his tail was bulging like he was trying to push something out, so I helped a little bit on pushing it out and a small amount of feces came out then he started farting. It was quite entertaining because he was making bubbles (lol) but I was just wondering where this gas came from? I got the rest of the shed off of his head then put him back, but this is kind of new for me that a snake was just farting. I've heard them before but they were defecating at the time as well but his was pretty much all farts. Just wondering if anyone has had this experience before.
