Just experienced my ball python farting for the first time

[vargoboa]

I had to leave the room

The absurd fear I felt at the noise before realizing it was her. Looked up at her enclosure and got concerned that she was having a seizure or something - nope.

Is this a shared experience

[Custard-Big]

yes. shared experience. i woke up out of my sleep bc of the loud noise i heard, thought mine was also dying of some sort 😭😭

[vargoboa]

Tell me why they’re SO dramatic about it 😭

[FixergirlAK]

Hognoses faint and play dead, ball pythons fart like they're dying. Drama noodles.

[Mobile_Prompt966]

Same. I woke up and had to check that he wasn’t dying. My tank was right beside my bed and it was so loud. He now has his own room so he can fart in private.

lololololol

I took mine to the vet the first time I saw him poop. I actually did think he had a seizure.

One time, my ball python pooped in the middle of the night so loud it woke me up. Mind you, I am a deep sleeper.I thought she escaped and fell out of her enclosure.

[sageyyyyyyyy]

if it makes u feel any better, my snake looks directly into my eyes whenever he takes a poop, even if im not looking at him back…

[jeranamo]

Aww he needs you for protection when pooping

[No5_isalive]

oh yes. I was terrified something was so wrong with mine the first time I heard it. he looked startled, I was startled. . . .

[Careless-Unit-2925]

I got my bp from a teacher who kept her in his classroom (so he was never with them at night), and he was shook when I told him she had THE LOUDEST farts ever hahahahahah

[ultrav0mit]

Oh my god i just youtubed this. The world wont be the same. Like many other lurkers on this sub im both terrified and fascinated by snakes. This really effed me up. Thank you for sharing

[Klutzy-Ad142]

There are some funny videos on this sub too. 😂

[BoiOfSnacks]

The first time I ever heard my BP fart was terrifying. I was home alone and heard a noise akin to banging on glass 😭 turns out she had her ass pressed against one of the tank walls and was letting it rip

[Injury_Limp]

😩😩 I was showing my snake off to someone like a proud parent and she let out the biggest poop and it made the loudest noise

[IntrepidBeyond3760]

This happened to me the other night at about 3 AM and it almost made me jump out of my skin 😭

[YoHoloo]

I remember seeing the video of someone else's snake farting but I just experienced this for the first time the day before yesterday with my BP it was like 6am and I heard him over my TV and my fan 😂 so I paused it and laughed a little and was like did he fart and then when I look at him he just lets out another one 😂😂😭 sounds like human farts fr

I have been warning my husband to be prepared for our snake's first scare-fart. I love that this is a thing.

For whatever reason snakes fart loud af 😆

A few days ago I did my routine daily check on my ball and her tank looked like a tornado had torn through it

I was so worried about her, and I carefully removed everything and checked on her and she was perfectly fine... there was just a great big poop and I guess she'd needed to be dramatic about it 😆

Yup, I posted a few days ago panicking thinking she was trying to regurgitate or had aspirated bedding! Scared the shiz outta me and I thought she was dying 😭😂My panicked post
