I've had my little guy for just about a month now. I had him out tonight, handling him for about an hour when he peed on me. Over the past week, the snake has seemingly become very comfortable with my handling. I am very gentle, and pretty much let him roam wherever his little heart desires. Why would he pee on me? Is this a defensive mechonism? Was he telling me he iwanted to go back to his enclosure? I guess its a plus that It was a hell of alot of pee, so I guess he's not dehydrated.Has this happened to any of you guys before? I'd love to know why he did that.
