...indigo crap! you all know the feeling, you spend all day (well, in my case I did) cleaning indigo cages, the room is clean, it smells, well, odor free, and you just kind of look at all of the clean indigo cages. Then, you kick back on the sofa and watch the Bears put a thumping on those cheeshead Green Bay Packers (my family is from wisco so i am allowed to poke fun at them) when all of a sudden, you begin smelling that oh so familiar odor of indigo crap. you then hear the sound of what can only be described as a fire hose dousing a fire. and now, with my temporary exhiliration of a clean indigo room over, i must now start all over. someone tell me why i do this to myself...oh yeah, indigos are the world's greatest snakes, indigos are the world's greatest snakes, indigos are the world greatest snakes, .........

Yep....a clean cage is the Indigo equivalent of Ex-Lax. If you ever have a constipated Indigo, all you have to do is clean his cage.

Butt, (notice the use of alternate spelling here in order to make a pun?) I have also found that taking them out into the yard usually does the same thing....only quicker. When you put them down in the grass, they can't stop it. They crap. Soooo...sometimes when the weather is nice I clean their cage and then take them out in the yard for a few minutes before I put them back in it. Then I don't have to clean the cage again the same day. However, after about 10 minutes in the (real) Sun they get pretty turned on. A hyper-active 8-foot Indigo isn't the easiest animal in the world to control.
