slightly strange question..............

This is something Ive tried to figure out myself but always seem to just miss it. Anywho, when shedding, do balls shed then go to the bathroom; or go to the bathroom, then shed? Also, what is the reason for this occurring together? Just one of those things that make me go hhmmmmmmmm. thanks for playing

It doesn't necessarily go together - many times there is a shed but no accompaniement. Sometimes they go at the same time wrap it up all nice for you - always fun to reach in expecting a shed and get a poop salami. Not sure if there is really anything scientific behind it.

LOL - That there is Crazy Frog (aka The Annoying Thing" - a recent phenomenon to sweep Europe Australia and even more recently Nintendo and the Cartoon Network - and since Xmas, my home thanks to my Kiwi Ex who sent the kids Crazy Frog memorabilla for Christmas. We are all hooked.

I think that it is due to all of the wiggling they do to get out of the skin. I think that makes them "go".
