I was taking some pictures of my Female green tree python (2 years, roughly 200-300 grams). When I picked her up i saw she was going to deficate and then all this came out. I know poop and I know I havent seen this. She gets 1 small mouse a week. Usually never misses a feed. She just shed last night. Terrarium ambient temps are 74-78 and hot spot of 86-88. Humidity is 60% or higher. Any reason this much liquid came out?

In general, I have some animals that produce a lot of fluid when they defecate - I have always taken it as a sign of them being well-hydrated. I also have animals that when they get irritated and / or have their vent messed with will release fluids.

That could be it. Ive soaked her a couple times the last week since I knew she was going to shed. She had lots of water to drink

Macy is laughing because she learned a lesson last night what can happen when you play with an animal's tail.

My male chondro was nearby, he could have caused some stress with the little female she is.
